US intelligence officials warn Ukraine that intelligence sharing could be halted immediately if Ukraine carries out further strikes on Russian energy-related infrastructure, including oil refineries. Multiple outlets report the warning is tied specifically to continued attacks on Russia’s oil and energy assets.
Ukrainian sources say the message was communicated through contacts with senior Ukrainian officials, including President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s statements confirming the warning. The Washington Post is cited as describing broader US outreach to Ukrainian officials on the same issue, portraying the warning as clear and time-sensitive. The accounts emphasize the potential for an “immediate” cutoff of data sharing rather than any longer-term review or negotiation.
While the details vary in wording across reports, all describe the same core claim: the US signals that additional strikes on Russian refineries could lead to an immediate stop in intelligence sharing with Ukraine.
