Britain will also continue to supply analysis of raw data but will not pass on shared US information, sources say

Summary

The UK will continue supplying intelligence to Ukraine after the U.S. cut off its support, though British and European capabilities are more limited.

Intelligence from satellites, surveillance aircraft, and ground sources helps Ukraine conduct strikes in Russia and detect incoming attacks.

The U.S. decision, reportedly a political move to push Ukraine into peace talks, could hinder Ukraine’s defense, especially against missile threats.

France also pledged to continue intelligence sharing. Analysts warn the cutoff weakens Ukraine’s strategic capabilities and enables renewed Russian offensives.

    I haven’t been proud to be British in a long time. How Starmer has handled the US breaking their agreements with Ukraine has made me proud again

      Same. I don’t agree with Starmer on everything (eg his cannabis policy), but it’s nice to have a grownup in charge again. Instead of a performing monkey desperate for a new sound bite so we forget last week’s disaster.

        Exactly! In spite of his potentially controversial policies and decisions, it’s difficult to say he isn’t a leader. We haven’t had one of those for a very long time, only leeches dressed in suits

          Kinda happy to have a government that has policies that can be controversial. The previous lot has so run out of steam that their response to the cost of living crisis was go to the Winchester and wait for it to all blow over

    Good move from the UK.
