Two officials confirm Washington has halted intelligence channels with Ukraine, though intelligence on Russia and Ukraine is still shared with key allies like the UK.

British PM Starmer:

I agree that the absence of US aid to Ukraine will place a terrible burden on Britain.

CIA Director John Ratcliffe has just announced that the U.S. has suspended weapons and intelligence support to Ukraine.

He stated that he looks forward to lifting the pause and working with Ukraine toward peace after receiving a letter addressed to Trump.

UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer:

I don't want to risk a direct military confrontation with Russia by deploying peacekeeping force to Ukraine.

This is the last thing anyone wants to see.

German MoD:

Germany has reached the limit of its ability to supply Ukraine with weapons from its own stockpiles.

ISIS-K planner behind the 2021 Abbey Gate bombing at Kabul's Airport, Muhammed Sharifullah, has been captured in Pakistan’s Balochistan province and has been extradited to the U.S.

The attack killed 13 U.S. service members and around 170 Afghans during the U.S. withdrawal.

Sharifullah, a senior ISIS-K leader, allegedly coordinated the bombing.

President Trump announced the capture, praising Pakistani cooperation and criticizing Biden’s Afghanistan exit.
