Luke Harding – The Guardian Aug2, 2022
The role of American intelligence in the war in Ukraine has been put under scrutiny after Russia accused the White House of supplying targeting information used by Kyiv to conduct long-range missile strikes.
Russia’s defence ministry claimed Washington was “directly involved” in the war, and had passed on intelligence that had led to the “mass deaths of civilians”. The US was responsible for rocket attacks by Kyiv on populated areas in the eastern Donbas and in other regions, it said.
“All this undeniably proves that Washington, contrary to White House and Pentagon claims, is directly involved in the conflict in Ukraine,” the ministry said in a statement.
The Biden administration has so far given more than $8bn (£6.55bn) in security assistance to Ukraine since Russia’s February invasion, including an additional $550m tranche unveiled on Monday. But it strongly denies it is a participant in the conflict or is at war with Russia.
The Kremlin’s comments came after an interview given to the Telegraph on Monday by Vadym Skibitsky, Ukraine’s acting deputy head of military intelligence. Skibitsky said the US-made long-range Himars artillery systems had been extremely effective in wiping out Russian fuel and ammunition dumps.
He said excellent satellite imagery and real-time information had helped. He denied US officials were providing direct targeting information. But he acknowledged there was consultation between US and Ukrainian intelligence officials before strikes, so Washington could vet and if necessary veto intended targets.
Russia’s foreign ministry spokesperson, Maria Zakharova, leaped on the remarks. She told the RIA Novosti news agency: “No other confirmation of the direct involvement of the United States in the hostilities on the territory of Ukraine is required.
“The supply of weapons is accompanied not only by instructions on its use, but in this case they perform the function of gunners in their purest form.”
The US has given Ukraine 16 Himars systems so far. Four more arrived this week. Ukraine’s president, Volodymyr Zelenskiy, has credited them with slowing Russia’s advances in the east and south and inflicting significant damage on enemy operations.
Moscow claims a Himars strike killed 53 Ukrainian prisoners of war last week at a Russian-operated prison near Olenivka, in the Donetsk region. Another 73 were injured. Kyiv says the Russians murdered the prisoners from the Azov regiment, who were captured in May in Mariupol.
On Tuesday, the regiment called on the US state department to recognise Russia as a “terrorist state”.
“Russia has been proving this status with its daily actions for many years. Its army and special services commit war crimes every day,” it said, claiming its fighters were victims of a Moscow “public execution”.
On Monday the Institute for the Study of War published a report that concluded Russian forces were behind the prison explosion. It said satellite imagery strongly suggested a “precision strike or an internally planted incendiary or explosive” caused the blast.
“Claim” seems to be the favourite word of the BBC and The Guardian’s Whorenalists, the only use it to discredit and denigrate those they consider enemies of the Zio-Globalist Empire they serve with great zeal and devotion.;
For example, every massacre perpetrated by the Jewish Illegal state is never reported by these two Globalist propaganda machines as having actually happened, but always with suspicion as “Claimed by the Palestinians to have taken place”, contrary to any statement made by the Israeli authorities, which usually is always repeated as being an indisputable fact.
The pentagon, the white House, White Hall, The Knesset, etc never claim much, on the contrary all they do is affirm anything they like, and leave their servile Whornalists to echo their crap as being the Gospel truth, but anything coming from the Russians, the Iranians, the Chinese, Bolsonaro, Madure, or Orban say; are just “Claims”, to be taken with a cargo load of salt.
What does one expect from a Fag like Luke Harding, just look at that facial expression…it says it all.

Have you noticed that the Septic lsles establishment is subtly reorientating its official stance on the so called Russkie SMO..
One has to accept that the FO is acutely aware of the Yankee operations in the Ukraine for the last five months.. because of course the ‘British’ military are shoulder to shoulder with them…
This sort of propaganda from the ‘Fraudian’ indicates a ‘policy’ change (at least in the handouts they are given to ‘publish’)… which doesn’t bode well for the ‘elitists’ plans for America…. but could also be the next round of the increasingly desperate political punch and judy show… with the emphasis focused on the Chinese and of course ‘Conservatives’..
Don’t worry about it, USA & Russia are actually on the same side. The masses still can’t figure out that the USA/Russia are both covertly governed by the same transnational syndicate of Zionist-Communist Cryptocrats behind their visible Chabad shills (Biden/Putin) to advance their global Zionist-Communist objectives…Its similar to the scenario posited by Orwell in 1984 where the three superstates (Oceania/Eurasia/Eastasia) appear as ‘enemies’ but are essentially clandestine confederates, as they coordinate their geopolitical policies to maintain their control over the masses & the world.
They’re colluding now to prolong the war to exterminate thousands/millions of Aryan Ukrainians & demolish the infrastructure of their nation to prevent the potential formation of a fascist white Ethnostate…Then the Commies will import millions of apes & wogs into Ukraine…
Are you an american “nico”? What’s this obsession you have with the word “commies”. There’s no such thing as a “commie”. The closest you’d get is the “leaders” of various countries such as N Korea. Or are you mad enough to believe that all the people in such places are as bad as you’d like them to be? They are just like you.
