TL;DR Summary

President Joe Biden has informed Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy that the U.S. will provide Ukraine with long-range ATACMS missiles topped with cluster munitions, allowing the Ukrainian military to strike at Russian supply lines and command posts. The decision comes after Zelenskyy's appeal during his visit to the U.S., and follows similar missile deliveries from Britain and France. The U.S. officials did not specify when the missiles would be transferred, aiming to maintain an element of surprise. The Biden administration also announced an additional $325 million aid package to Ukraine, including air defense munitions.
