The Trump administration has resumed sending some weapons to Ukraine, a week after the Pentagon had directed that some deliveries be paused, US officials said on Wednesday.
The weapons heading into Ukraine include 155 mm munitions and precision-guided rockets known as GMLRS, two officials said.
These have become some of the most used munitions of the war. Each round is about 2 feet long, weighs about 45 kg and is 155 mm, or 6.1 inches, in diameter. They are mounted on the Howitzer systems known for their range of the angle they can fire at.
