While many Russian generals lost their lives in the war with Ukraine, a claim made in the US press drew attention. According to the news of the New York Times, the Russian generals were killed after the information given by the US intelligence. On the other hand, it was stated in the statement that this information was not shared with Ukraine with the intention of killing Russian generals.
The New York Times, one of the most prestigious newspapers in the USA, claimed that some of the 12 Russian generals who lost their lives in the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine since February 24 were killed with the help of the intelligence provided by the USA.
REAL-TIME INTELLIGENCE FROM USA TO UKRAINE
According to the newspaper, the real-time intelligence provided by the US to the Ukrainian army includes the location of the frequently changing mobile headquarters of the Russian army and troop movements taken from Russia’s secret war plan.
According to the report, unnamed sources did not specify how many of the Russian generals were killed with the help of US intelligence or how information about the operations was obtained.
“THIS WAS NOT OUR INTENTION”
During the visit of Russian Chief of General Staff Valeri Gerasimov last weekend, it was claimed that US intelligence was not used in the attack on eastern Ukraine.
US National Security Council Spokesperson Adrienne Watson stated that after the news was published, they did not share intelligence with Ukraine with the intention of killing Russian generals.
