France Touts ‘Intel Capabilities’ As US Blackout Impacts Ukraine’s Defence & Strikes Against Russia
The US paused intelligence-sharing with Ukraine, affecting Kyiv’s ability to strike Russian targets and defend itself. Washington is reviewing military aid until President Zelensky commits to peace talks. The suspension mainly applies to intelligence on Russian territory, limiting Ukraine’s awareness of enemy movements and reducing HIMARS effectiveness. France continues providing intelligence, while European satellite companies offer alternative imagery. The pause may hinder Ukraine’s ability to detect Russian attacks and plan counterstrikes, but some allies remain supportive in intelligence-sharing. n18oc_crux
