The CIA continues to help Ukraine strike deep into Russia - media

The CIA continues to help Ukraine strike deep into Russia, despite Trump's attempts to establish relations with Putin and secure an end to Ukrainian attacks on Russian oil refineries, The Atlantic writes, citing sources in American and European intelligence services.

According to the publication, the US provides Ukraine with intelligence information that is used for strikes on Russian territory. American satellites also warn the Ukrainian army about the approach of Russian missiles and drones.

At the same time, the CIA plays a leading role among American structures working directly in Ukraine, a former high-ranking intelligence officer said.

Moreover, according to a representative of one of the Baltic intelligence services, CIA operations against Russia have now become "much more aggressive" than under the Biden administration.

A key role in this work is played by CIA Director John Ratcliffe. Despite his close relationship with Trump, he continues to support the cooperation of American intelligence with Ukraine.
