The US provided intelligence that assisted Ukrainian forces in the assassination of numerous Russian generals killed in the Ukraine war, the New York Times reported on Wednesday, citing senior US officials.

Washington has provided Ukraine with information on Russia’s expected troop movements as well as the location and other details of Russia’s mobile military headquarters, and Ukraine has combined this information with its own intelligence to conduct artillery strikes and other attacks that have killed Russian officers.

Reuters reached out to the Pentagon and the White House for comment on the claim, but neither responded right away, according to the newspaper.

According to the New York Times, Ukrainian officials claimed to have killed roughly 12 Russian generals on the battlefield.

According to the publication, US officials refused to say how many generals were slain as a result of American intelligence.
