Ukraine will get an upgraded model of the long-range missiles it just received, an official said.
Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba said Ukraine will get ATACMS that can travel about 190 miles.
Ukraine likely used more limited ATACMS that it got from the US in a recent attack on Russian airfields.

A Ukrainian official said he believes the country will soon receive ATACMS long-range missiles from the US that can travel almost twice as far as the model that just arrived in Ukraine.
