Report: U.S. Giving Real-Time Intelligence to Ukraine to Help Attack Russian Forces
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

More details are emerging about how the United States is providing
real-time intelligence - even specific coordinates - to Ukraine to help
them attack Russian forces. NBC News is reporting Ukraine shot down a
Russian transport plane carrying hundreds of troops in the early days of
the war based on information provided by the United States. The U.S.
intelligence has also helped Ukraine move its air defenses to avoid
Russian strikes. In addition, NBC is reporting the CIA is "devoting
significant resources" by gathering intelligence to help protect
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.
