US Republicans block Ukraine and Israel aid bill – BBC News

US Senate Republicans have blocked a move to pass an aid bill for Ukraine after failing to secure border compromises they sought in exchange.

The $110bn (£87.3bn) package included $61bn for Ukraine, as well as funds for Israel and aid for Gaza.

The White House has warned that US funds for Ukraine could soon run out, and a Ukrainian official said that that failure to secure more US aid would mean a “very high possibility” that the war will be lost to Russia.
