Pentagon's aid to Ukraine poorly tracked and monitored despite improvements

The Department of Defense’s office of the inspector general has concluded that the department has failed to comply with the requirements of end-use monitoring as it relates to military aid to Ukraine, even though its efforts have improved.

The DOD OIG released a report — Evaluation of the DoD’s Enhanced End-Use Monitoring of Defense Articles Provided to Ukraine — on Monday, and one main conclusion was that as of June 2, 2023, more than $1 billion (59%) of the total nearly $1.7 billion of enhanced end-use monitoring-designated equipment was delinquent.
