Wall Street Journal (gated) report, in brief:
- The U.S. will begin providing Ukraine with intelligence to support long-range missile strikes on Russian energy infrastructure, marking the first time Washington directly aids such deep strikes inside Russia.
- President Trump approved the move, and U.S. officials are urging NATO allies to do the same.
- The expanded intelligence support is seen as a shift in U.S. policy as peace talks stall. It could enable Ukraine to target refineries, pipelines, and power plants more effectively, with the aim of cutting Russian revenue and oil supplies.
- The Trump administration is also considering supplying Kyiv with long-range U.S. weapons such as Tomahawks and Barracudas, though no final decision has been made.
