U.S. Intelligence Boost to Ukraine Amid Rising Tensions with Russia

The Kremlin announced on Thursday that both the United States and NATO are consistently providing intelligence to Ukraine, following news reports suggesting Washington's plans to supply information on Russian energy targets to Kyiv.

According to The Wall Street Journal and Reuters, the U.S. is contemplating sharing data on long-range energy infrastructure within Russia and is also assessing whether to dispatch missiles to Kyiv for potential use. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov confirmed to journalists that the U.S. regularly conveys intelligence to Ukraine online.

The debate comes at a time when U.S. President Donald Trump is expressing heightened frustration with Russian President Vladimir Putin's actions in Ukraine, especially after their recent summit in Alaska. This increase in tension is juxtaposed against Russia's continued advancements in eastern Ukraine and regular drone incursions into European airspace, which Moscow claims are unintentional.
