As a bill with $60.1 billion in military aid for Kyiv languishes in the House, a
spokeswoman pointed to Avdiivka’s fate as “the cost of congressional inaction.”

The Biden administration said Saturday that the Ukrainian military withdrawal
from Avdiivka was the result of Congress failing to provide additional money to
support Kyiv’s war effort.

Ukraine ordered the withdrawal from the eastern city of Avdiivka before dawn on
Saturday, the country’s first major battlefield loss since the fall of Bakhmut
last year.

“This is the cost of congressional inaction,” said Adrienne Watson, a
spokeswoman for the National Security Council. “The Ukrainians continue to fight
bravely, but they are running low on supplies.”

A correction was made on

: 

An earlier version of this article misstated the value of a measure passed by
the Senate to send aid to Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan, as well as to provide
humanitarian assistance for the Palestinians. It is a $95 billion package,
including $60.1 billion in military aid for Ukraine. It is not $60.1 billion in
total.
