We know it's all true because the CIA said it was.
...The partnership, which can be traced back to February 2014, has provided Ukraine with intelligence-gathering training, communications equipment, and, in the past eight years, a network of spy bases built along the Russian border, the report said.
....
"We made a distinction between intelligence collection operations and things that go boom," a former senior US official told the Times.
Those boundaries have since been abandoned after Russia invaded Ukraine in February 2022, according to the report.
The Biden Administration greenlighted the CIA to provide intelligence critical for Ukraine's lethal operations against Russia, the report said.
Some of the intelligence included when exactly Russian forces planned to attack six Ukrainian cities and assassination plans against top Ukrainian officials, including President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, according to the report.
"Are they pulling triggers? No," a senior US official told The Times of the CIA's role in Ukraine. "Are they helping with targeting? Absolutely."
It all just started in 2014
"for freedom"
I wonder what Israel would do if Gaza had the CIA/KGB spy stations there?
I wonder what Israel would do if Gaza had bio-weapons labs?

Maybe try to kill them all? "neutralize" the threat.
Would they think that having Bio or Chemical weapons in Gaza right on their boarder is a provocation?
I mean they shouldn't right?
If they attacked Gaza and killed 10s of thousands and displaced millions over it that'd just be a propagandistic excuse for expansion.
they'd probably take over Egypt next.

Biolabs .. some owned by Hunter Biden and other political figures. Yeah .. nothing sinister about that.

So do bio labs exist inside Ukraine, and is the US supporting them?
Yes, and yes. Ukraine does operate biological laboratories that receive US funding. The US undersecretary of state Victoria Nuland affirmed those facts in a Senate foreign relations committee hearing this week, in which the Republican senator Marco Rubio asked directly if Ukraine had biological weapons.
Nuland did not answer the question head on. “Ukraine has biological research facilities,” she said, adding that there was concern that Russian forces were trying to gain control of the labs. “We are working with the Ukrainians on how they can prevent any of those research materials from falling into the hands of Russian forces.”
Nuland’s comments were seized upon by far-right commentators as evidence of a secret plot. In fact, US funding to the laboratories had its roots in the fall of the Soviet Union, after which money was pumped into Ukraine and other countries to help them transfer scientific skills away from weapons towards public health.
The scheme was originally known as Cooperative Threat Reduction (CTR) but is now more commonly referred to as biological engagement. It has been successful in helping former Soviet and other countries fulfill public health obligations.
“This is one of the best things that we do,” Dr Gigi Gronvall, senior scholar at Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security, told the Guardian.
Most of the work of the Ukraine labs today, Gronvall said, involves surveillance of diseases in animals and people as an early-warning system for illnesses such as African swine fever, which is endemic in the region.
“We know pathogens don’t respect borders, so helping to put out public health fires before they become too big is an advantage to all of us,” she said.
Do the Ukraine laboratories store dangerous biological agents?
As part of their work the labs do seem to hold dangerous pathogens. We know that because WHO is urging Ukraine to destroy any highly dangerous agents to avoid the risk of a disastrous outbreak should one of the labs be hit by Russian forces.
“As part of this work, WHO has strongly recommended to the ministry of
health in Ukraine and other responsible bodies to destroy high-threat
pathogens to prevent any potential spills,” the UN health agency said.
The WHO has worked in Ukraine for several years helping bio labs improve safety and security, so it knows what it is talking about....
But the CIA said it aint so, so that's that?

here's a few more items to review” . . . . [Robert Pope, the director of the Pentagon’s Cooperative Threat Reduction Program] noted that some of the facilities may contain pathogens once used for Soviet-era bioweapons programs, but he emphasized that the Ukrainian labs currently did not have the ability to manufacture bioweapons. . . . In a March interview with the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists . . . . He spoke specifically about the Pentagon’s support of 14 veterinary laboratories that provide Ukraine with sampling and diagnostic abilities to detect infectious diseases. . . .”
Good thing the pentagon is spending money in Ukraine for "veterinary labs".
I thought the pentagon was all about defending the U.S. by killing people not about taking care of foreign animals.
Any former military here ever work as "veterinary labs" that "used to" create military grade bio- weapons?
Here's a link to 1 receipt for funding one of the labs that the Gov't REMOVED the official gov't website.
there are about 20+ that were removed... are we supposed to believe they were removed because there's "Nothing" in Ukraine?
the web archive site still has it and the others ...so far.

PLAGUE WARS Putin could unleash deadly virus from seized Ukraine lab – and then blame the US, warns ex-Brit chemical weapons colonel
https://www.the-sun.com/news/4880168...lab-bioweapon/
Colonel Hamish de Bretton-Gordon, former chief of the British Army's chemical weapons unit, told The Sun Online there is a possibility Russian troops could storm a lab and use it as a base to unleash a bioweapon.
And he also warned that the "indiscriminate" bombing by Putin's troops could spark chaos at one of the labs.
It came as the World Health Organisation said the most deadly pathogens in Ukraine's labs should be wiped out as Russia's relentless bombing has raised the risk of "potential spills".
The invading Russian forces have already proved to be reckless enough to fire shells at Chernobyl, Europe’s largest nuclear-power plant, and fire missiles at a radioactive-waste facility near Kyiv.
And biowarfare experts have become increasingly concerned about the security of Ukraine's labs as the Russian troops advance.
So why would the former chief of the British Army's chemical weapons unit & the WHO think there's a problem if there ARE NO bio-weapons labs?
But maybe he's lying too? (and the WHO.. wouldn't be 1st for them) But wouldn't that mean a nefarious conspiracy of some kind?
Look I know we like to think the U.S. military is just out there protecting the world from the bad guys.
but the reality is sometimes the pentagon & reps of the U.S.gov't are doing some dirty illegal Sh!t. and lie saying they are not.
If we're using logic we don't ignore a train of uncomfortable facts.

I believe if you look, one of the links I provided attest to the existence of the labs and why the US and other country and World organizations are involved in them. That would be evidence. Unlike someone taking a story, giving it a false narrative and running with it.
