⚡️🇺🇦🇺🇸🇷🇺 — Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy declared the restriction on strikes against Russian oil refineries over, telling the Financial Times, “The block [on attacking refineries] is out. We’re done.” He said Kyiv had paused energy strikes for three days to honor Donald Trump’s announced “energy ceasefire,” while Moscow continued attacking Ukrainian energy infrastructure; he also said Ukraine would halt energy-sector strikes only in exchange for additional Patriot missiles. Zelenskyy criticized the reported “dangerous” US suspension of intelligence sharing and weakening of Starlink service.

➡️ The Washington Post previously reported that US intelligence agencies warned Ukraine’s embassy that further Ukrainian strikes on Russian energy facilities could trigger an immediate, complete cessation of intelligence sharing with Kyiv. A source described the warnings as so extensive that “everyone whose last name sounded Ukrainian received a call.” FT had separately reported threats by the Trump administration to suspend PURL, through which European allies purchase US weapons for Ukraine.

➡️ Whether Washington decided to restrict intelligence cooperation or implemented the threatened cutoff remained unconfirmed; Trump recently said intelligence sharing continued, and an anonymous US official told AFP the policy had “not changed.” US officials also denied Trump administration involvement in Starlink disruptions, attributing them to a technical malfunction. White House officials said the administration did not control SpaceX and efforts to restore service were ongoing.
