US President Joe Biden reportedly told Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy that the Pentagon will transfer long-range ATACMS missiles to the Ukrainian Armed Forces. But the terms were not specified.

As for long-range weapons, Ukraine has received Storm Shadow and SCALP EG cruise missiles, and is also awaiting Taurus.
