Joe Biden has told Volodymyr Zelensky he will "move quickly" to send Ukraine fresh military aid, after US lawmakers passed a $61bn (£49bn) support package.
The House of Representatives approved the bill on Saturday after months of political gridlock in the chamber.
Mr Biden promised "significant" support for Kyiv - including more air defences - if senators approve the bill as expected on Tuesday.
The assurances come as Russian attacks destroyed a TV tower in Kharkiv.
