US intelligence warns Ukraine: halt refinery attacks or lose data sharing
US intelligence has warned Ukraine that intelligence sharing will be halted immediately if Kyiv continues attacks on Russian energy facilities, according to The Washington Post. The threat has not yet been implemented but remains in place. The warning was delivered to Ukraine's embassy in Washington on Monday, October 12, and spread widely among Ukrainian officials involved in the matter. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky confirmed receiving such threats, while US President Donald Trump stated that the US shares intelligence and wants the war to end. The threats reportedly caused confusion over missing ballistic missile warnings for Kyiv on two consecutive nights, though Ukraine's Air Force clarified that data was only absent before the first wave of an attack on October 14. An EU diplomat suggested the situation could reflect either US pressure on Zelensky or Kyiv's attempt to demonstrate that intelligence sharing had stopped.
