U.S. Intelligence Helped Ukraine Kill Russian Generals, Reports New York Times

HeadlineMay 05, 2022

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi says lawmakers could vote as early as next week on President Biden’s request for $33 billion in aid to Ukraine — including another $20 billion for weapons and ammunition. The bill has bipartisan support on Capitol Hill. This comes as the Associated Press reports the rush to arm Ukraine has depleted the U.S.’s vast stockpile of weapons.

Meanwhile, The New York Times reports the U.S. is providing Ukraine’s military real-time intelligence that it has used to target senior Russian officers. Ukraine claims to have killed approximately 12 generals on the frontlines.
