The United States will send $108 million in humanitarian aid to the people of Syria, State Department spokeswoman Morgan Ortagus said Tuesday.
The United States also said Tuesday it was willing to provide ammunition to Turkey, according to U.S. special representative for the region James Jeffrey.
"Turkey is a NATO ally. Much of the military uses American equipment. We will make sure that equipment is ready and usable," Jeffrey told reporters.
Separately the U.S. Ambassador to Turkey, David Satterfield, said at the briefing that Washington is examining Ankara's request for air defence systems.
