"The United States will send helmets, medical supplies and other non-lethal military aid to Ukraine amid fears of another Russian incursion there, Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel said."
"Hagel said he had informed Kiev that President Barack Obama "has approved additional non-lethal military assistance for health and welfare items and other supplies."
"The aid includes medical supplies, helmets, sleeping mats and water purification units for Ukrainian troops, as well as shelters, small power generators and hand fuel pumps for Ukraine's border security force."
"But it does not appear to contain any combat equipment, such as bulletproof vests or night-vision goggles."
"Washington had sent some 300,000 food rations to Kiev in late March."
The aid also includes welcome packs to hand out to the Russian soldiers when they march into Ukraine.
