Report fuels major escalation ahead of US’ decision whether to supply Tomahawk missiles to Kiev.
As it has been repeatedly stated by Russian officials, a report arises today saying that the US has been helping Ukraine stage long-range strikes deep inside Russian territory ‘for months’.
It’s said to be a joint effort to weaken the Russian economy and bring President Vladimir Putin to the negotiating table, the Financial Times first reported (behind a paywall).
Reuters reported:
“U.S. intelligence has helped Kyiv strike important Russian energy assets, including oil refineries, far beyond the front line, the newspaper said, citing unnamed Ukrainian and U.S. officials familiar with the campaign.
The White House, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy’s office and Ukraine’s foreign ministry did not immediately respond to Reuters requests for comment. There was no immediate comment from the Russian foreign ministry.”

Moscow has repeatedly stated that Washington and NATO are supplying intelligence to Kiev.
“’The supply and use of the entire infrastructure of NATO and the United States to collect and transfer intelligence to Ukrainians is obvious’, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters then.
The FT said U.S. intelligence helps Kyiv shape route planning, altitude, timing and mission decisions, enabling Ukraine’s long-range, one-way attack drones to evade Russian air defenses.”
