A new $2.6 billion U.S. military aid package that could include air surveillance radars, anti-tank rockets, and fuel trucks could be announced on April 3, Reuters reported, citing undisclosed U.S. officials.

According to Reuters' sources, tank munitions are also expected to be on the list of equipment, but the dollar amount and specific equipment in the package could change.
