White House national security adviser Jake Sullivan confirmed on Friday that the Biden administration will provide Ukraine with cluster bombs, which have been opposed by humanitarian groups for their long-term effects on civilians.

Cluster munitions are a category of rockets, bombs, missiles, and artillery projectiles that break apart in the air and blanket a large area. The munitions often fail and can devastate civilians. More than 100 countries have vowed not to use cluster munitions, although Russia, China, and Ukraine have not signed the international agreement on cluster bombs.

Democrat presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said, “Cluster bombs are munitions so horrific for civilians that more than a hundred nations have signed an international treaty banning them. Now the Biden administration is preparing to send them to Ukraine.”
