A video shows a steady stream of artillery as Ukrainian forces fight against the Russian takeover of a key city.
Troops in Ukraine deployed a Bradley infantry fighting vehicle (IFV) to the front lines of Avdiivka, according to video posted by the Ukraine Ministry of Defense.
The vehicle shot at Russian lines as Putin’s forces close in on the decimated city in the norther suburbs of Donestsk, the eastern region that Russian forces already partially occupy.
Each American-made Bradley IFV costs about $4.35 million, according to multiple sources.
The video comes as a bill that would give another $61 billion in aid to Ukraine remains stalled in US Congress over US-Mexico border disputes.
Meanwhile, further funding for Ukraine remains stalled in the US Senate as Democrats and Republicans remain locked in a battle over domestic issues like border security.
Republicans want tougher border security and asylum measures as the number of illegal crossings remains at an all-time high.
Americans in general are also souring on financially supporting Ukraine.
A recent poll by the Democracy Institute shows only 44 percent of respondents think US taxpayers should pay for the war, compared to 51 percent who oppose American money going to Ukraine.
