U.S. approves possible sale of anti-tank missiles to Ukraine

U.S. approves possible sale of anti-tank missiles to UkraineThe U.S. State Department has approved the possible sale of Javelin anti-tank missiles and launch units to Ukraine at an estimated cost of $47 million, the Pentagon said on Thursday. The United States said in December it would provide Ukraine with defensive weapons. Since Moscow's annexation of Crimea in 2014, Ukraine and Russia have been at loggerheads over a war in eastern Ukraine between pro-Russian separatists and Ukrainian government forces that has killed more than 10,000 people in three years.
