Ukraine denies involvement in Nord Stream pipeline blasts, US received intel on planned attack.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy denies any involvement in the September underwater explosions that damaged the Nord Stream gas pipelines, linking Europe's energy infrastructure to Russia's gas fields. Claims of a Ukrainian-backed plan to take out Nord Stream 1 and 2 were allegedly identified by a security service of one of Washington's European allies and shared with the CIA last June. Investigations are ongoing, and a member of the U.S. Air National Guard is facing espionage charges for sharing classified intelligence on social media.
