Fox News: U.S. continues to share data to protect Ukrainians against Russian strikes, despite intel pause: sources
The U.S. is continuing to share some defensive intelligence with Ukraine to help protect against Russian strikes, despite a temporary pause in broader intelligence sharing. This pause has raised concerns among Ukraine and its allies, as U.S. intelligence is crucial for Ukraine's military operations.
While some intelligence related to incoming threats will still be shared, the halt in offensive intelligence limits Ukraine's ability to preemptively strike Russian targets, putting them in a more defensive position. The pause may also serve as leverage in negotiations, indicating that the U.S. can adjust its support based on Ukraine's actions.
