Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy renews plea for long-range U.S. weapons after Russian strikes kill dozens .

Zelenskiy appeared to make inroads with some of the defense leaders from the 50-plus partner nations who regularly gather to coordinate weapons aid for the war.

The request comes after a series of recent deadly Russian airstrikes, including against a Ukrainian military training center that killed more than 50 and wounded hundreds .

Western partner nations are working with Ukraine to source a substitute missile for its Soviet-era S-300 air defense systems.

The U.S. is also focused on resourcing a variety of air-to-ground missiles that the newly delivered F-16 fighter jets can carry.

The meeting aimed to focus on shoring up gains in expanding Ukraine ’s own defense industrial base.
