The US will provide $457.5 million in in civilian security assistance for Ukraine, Secretary of State Antony Blinken said on Monday. He said that a portion of the aid will be used to support the government’s investigation of atrocities.

In a statement, Blinken said the aid is designed to help Ukrainian law enforcement and criminal justice agencies.

“A portion of this new assistance will also continue U.S. support for the Ukrainian government’s efforts to document, investigate, and prosecute atrocities perpetrated by Russia’s forces, drawing on our long-standing relationship with Ukrainian criminal justice agencies including the Ukrainian Office of the Prosecutor General and the NPU’s war crimes unit,” Blinken said.

“Since mid-December 2021, the US has now committed more than $645 million in assistance that has provided a tangible, positive impact on our Ukrainian law enforcement and criminal justice partners, including the National Police of Ukraine (NPU) and State Border Guard Service,” the state department said in statement.
