Sources say U.S. may have withheld warnings to Ukraine before deadly Kyiv strikes

CBS News, citing sources, reports the U.S. may have held back warnings of Russian strikes on Kyiv, while Trump says Washington is still sharing intelligence.

Posted Updated (19 d ago)

CBS News reports, citing sources, that the Trump administration may have held back intelligence warnings to Ukraine before Russian strikes that left six people dead and 600,000 people without power. No other outlet in this set confirms that.

President Donald Trump told reporters at the White House on Tuesday that the U.S. has not stopped sharing intelligence with Ukraine, PBS NewsHour and France 24 report. Trump has said Washington is still "sharing intel."

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Ukraine got "no early warning from our partners" before the Russian ballistic missile attacks. The Guardian reports that five missiles hit civilian infrastructure in Monday's strike on Kyiv. Zelensky called the attack "particularly vile" and said intelligence from allies helps save lives. BBC News reports the strikes hit a key power plant in Kyiv.

Casualty figures differ by outlet. France 24 reported at least two killed and about 20 wounded in the power plant strike. Al Jazeera reported at least six killed in overnight attacks across Ukraine, with power cut in Kyiv. It also said ballistic missiles hit Kyiv for a second straight day without warning.

Kyiv accuses Russia of breaking an energy truce that Trump announced at the weekend, according to France 24. France 24 also cites experts and officials who say Ukraine relies heavily on U.S. intelligence for missile warnings and for targeting Russian military sites. The New York Times notes that some ballistic missile attacks go undetected even with intelligence sharing. The Guardian says Zelensky's remarks follow a U.S. threat to halt sharing.

The New York Times reports Zelensky will visit the U.K. as Ukraine presses allies on intelligence sharing.
