Overview

• U.S. officials approved providing Ukraine with intelligence tailored to hit refineries, pipelines and power facilities in Russia, the Wall Street Journal reported.
• Washington is asking NATO allies to mirror the intelligence support, according to the same reporting, with the White House declining immediate comment.
• Vice President JD Vance said the administration is considering supplying Tomahawk cruise missiles, potentially via other NATO countries, which could put more Russian targets within range.
• Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said the Tomahawk issue remains unresolved and questioned Ukraine’s suitability as a recipient, adding the missiles would not change the battlefield balance.
• Analysts note Ukraine lacks platforms needed to launch Tomahawks and that any supplied numbers would likely fall short of creating a strategic effect; the reported U.S. shift followed a pro‑Ukraine post by President Donald Trump.
