Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy expressed gratitude to the US administration for resuming intelligence sharing after a period of throttling from Washington, particularly in regards to Russian ballistic missile strikes. On NBC's Meet the Press, Zelenskyy stated that the intelligence was "blocked for some period of time" and only "debloked by the American side".
He also held SpaceX, operated by Elon Musk, responsible for reducing Starlink terminal speeds in Ukraine, which hampered drone and air defense operations. Zelenskyy criticized Trump's decisions, stating they were "all mistakes" and would not help either the US or Ukraine. The US Treasury Secretary, Scott Bessent, dismissed Zelenskyy's accusation, saying Trump and his team had "categorically said" no one in the administration was responsible for the throttling.
Meanwhile, Russia claimed to have downed 1,015 Ukrainian drones overnight, and tensions between Kyiv and Washington have deepened as both sides accuse each other of reckless actions during the ongoing conflict.
