WSJ Report: US to Provide Targeting Intelligence for Strikes on Russian Energy
- On October 1, 2025, the United States announced it will begin sharing intelligence with Ukraine to assist in missile attacks targeting Russia’s energy facilities from greater distances.
- This decision follows stalled peace talks with Moscow and reflects expanding U.S. efforts to weaken Russia's war economy through advanced military aid.
- The intelligence is intended to assist Ukraine in striking energy facilities deep within Russian territory, such as oil refineries, pipeline networks, and electrical plants, while U.S. officials are encouraging NATO partners to provide comparable assistance.
- Tomahawk and Barracuda missiles, potentially supplied to Ukraine, can strike targets up to 500 miles away, making key Russian energy sites vulnerable and worsening Moscow's gasoline shortages.
- Providing such intelligence marks a strategic shift that could enhance Ukraine's defense capabilities and intensify pressure to end Putin's war by targeting its primary funding sources.
