US Air National Guardsman Jack Teixeira was arrested in April for allegedly leaking classified documents in a Discord chat room. The docs included internal US evaluations of Ukraine’s military capabilities, besides other national security matters. The military intel disclosure is deemed one of the largest since the WikiLeaks release in 2010.

Volodymyr Zelensky’s top advisers warned the Ukrainian president against divulging war plans to US counterpart Joe Biden in September, The Washington Post reported.

“Don’t share anything with Biden you don’t want on the front page of The Washington Post,” an aide purportedly cautioned Zelensky ahead of his trip to the United States.

Doubts in Kiev about Washington’s ability to keep a lid on sensitive secrets was a concern in the wake of the Pentagon leaks earlier in the year, often referred to as the "Discord Leaks." The April disclosures reportedly left Zelensky fuming at the time, with the Ukrainian leader telling WaPo the following month that the breach was “not beneficial to the reputation of the White House, and I believe it is not beneficial to the reputation of the United States.”

The leak put a strain on Kiev’s relations with Washington, the outlet claimed, yet the intelligence-sharing relationship was not severed.

In late November, the president himself announced that the Ukrainian military would switch from attacking to building fortifications, acknowledging that Kiev’s much-hyped counteroffensive, which began in early June and aimed to cut Russia’s land bridge to Crimea, had ended without success. According to Russian Defense Ministry estimates, Ukraine has lost over 125,000 troops and 16,000 pieces of heavy equipment in failed attempts to advance over the past six months.

Earlier this week, the commander of Ukraine’s ground forces, Colonel General Aleksandr Syrsky, said that the Russian military “doesn’t stop conducting offensive operations along the entire front.” The situation for the Ukrainian defenders “remains difficult,” he acknowledged.
