The US administration is expected to announce an 800 million dollar military aid package for Ukraine that could incude cluster bombs. Kyiv wants the weapons for its ongoing counter offensive against Russia. But the bombs are highly controversial. They are currently banned by over 120 countries because they can kill indiscriminately over a wide area threatening injuries to civilians. Human rights groups are raising concerns about the decision.

For more on this, we're joined by DW correspondent Nick Connolly in Kyiv. And we talk to military analyst Mike Martin. He's a Senior War Studies fellow at King's College London.
