New: A senior US military official tells CNN the US has curtailed some intelligence sharing with Ukraine, which could affect both offensive and defensive operations including air defense, since Ukraine also depends on US intel for overwatch. Among the changes is a reduction in ISR flights.

The suspension of U.S. assistance for Ukraine is a very unfortunate and significant development, but it may not have immediate impact. Ukraine is far less dependent on the U.S. for day to day battlefield needs in 2025, than it was in earlier periods of the war. 1/
