Senates' Global Aid Efforts Amidst Crises

The U.S. Senate passed a $95 billion foreign aid package with bipartisan support, allocating $61 billion for Ukraine, $26 billion for Israel, and $8 billion for U.S. partners in the Indo-Pacific region. Provisions include seizing frozen Russian assets and imposing sanctions. Concurrently, a Russian official was arrested on bribery charges. In Ukraine, a Russian attack in Kharkiv injured six and damaged buildings, including a disrupted gas pipeline. Burkina Faso's military, trained by the U.S., executed over 220 civilians, raising human rights concerns.
