FT: US Cuts Off Intel Sharing With Ukraine
The United States has cut off intelligence-sharing with Kyiv in a move that could seriously hamper the Ukrainian military's ability to target Russian forces, the Financial Times reported on Wednesday, citing officials familiar with the matter.
The news came after DailyMail.com reported Tuesday that President Donald Trump had ordered allied nations to stop sharing military intelligence information with Ukraine.
"The United States' instruction to stop allies sharing U.S.-derived intelligence with Ukraine is what I would expect," U.K. military intelligence expert Phil Ingram told the Mail.
Ukraine has relied on U.S. intelligence cooperation to identify and strike Russian military targets, Financial Times reported.
Three officials confirmed the U.S. decision to freeze intelligence channels with Kyiv, the outlet reported.
