US Resumes Intelligence Sharing with Ukraine, Zelensky Says
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said the US has resumed intelligence sharing with Ukraine after blocking it for a period.
3 days: how long Zelensky said the intelligence pause lasted.
Zelensky said Ukraine lacked warning of Russian ballistic missiles during that time.
He spoke in a prerecorded interview with NBC's Meet the Press.
Ukraine also said its access to military Starlink was throttled.
Why it matters: Zelensky said dozens of countries help Ukraine, but only the US has intelligence on ballistic launches. Ukraine has struggled to counter those missiles, partly due to a reported shortage of Patriot interceptors.
The pause followed a dispute over Ukrainian strikes on Russian energy infrastructure.
Trump has blamed those strikes for rising diesel prices.
