In what can only be described as an effort to taunt Putin into attacking America, Pentagon sources have admitted that U.S. intelligence shared information on the location of Russian generals in Ukraine, as well as the Russian flagship Naval ship with Ukrainian forces, allowing them to kill many of the high-ranking military officers that have died on the battlefield.
The information shared has helped kill as many as 12 Russian generals in Ukraine and sink one big ship, and is part of a secret endeavor by the Biden administration to provide the Ukrainians with details on Russian troop movements and the location of mobile Russian military command posts, according to the New York Times report.

Senior U.S. officials questioned in the report did not say how many Russian generals had been killed with the aid of U.S. intelligence.
According to the report, Pentagon spokesman John Kirby said he would not "speak to the details" of the intelligence being given to Ukraine. Still, he said that the U.S. provides “Ukraine with information and intelligence that they can use to defend themselves.”

National Security Council spokeswoman Adrienne Watson told the New York Times that intelligence shared with Ukraine is not given “with the intent to kill Russian generals.”
According to the report, the United States does not provide Ukraine with intelligence about the most senior Russian leaders, which said that a Ukrainian strike over the weekend that just missed Gen. Valery Gerasimov, Russia’s highest-ranking uniformed officer, was not the result of U.S. intelligence aid.

It has been previously reported that Ukraine employs U.S. intelligence to move planes and air defense systems almost every day to dodge Russian airstrikes, which is one of the reasons why Russia has not been able to achieve air superiority since the start of the war.
