"The United States has prohibited the United Kingdom from sharing intelligence data from Washington with Ukraine as part of the withdrawal of support for Volodymyr Zelensky," the publication writes.

"In addition to missiles and ammunition, all British intelligence agencies and military units have also received an order that explicitly prohibits sharing U.S. intelligence data, previously known as 'Rel UKR' - an abbreviation for 'Releasable to Ukraine'," the publication clarifies.

Since the beginning of the war three years ago, the United Kingdom and other Western security partners have reportedly shared such data with Ukraine.

It is reported that "Mail has learned that the United States has lifted the top-level classification in anticipation of further notification."

"The ban applies to organizations such as GCHQ of the United Kingdom, intelligence agencies, and intelligence units of the Ministry of Defense," the publication writes.
