Assistance was resumed after Kiev accepted Washington's proposed 30-day ceasefire with Russia  

Pentagon officials have confirmed that the US has fully restored military aid and intelligence sharing with Ukraine.

Earlier this month, Washington announced its decision to lift restrictions on assistance after Kiev announced that it would agree to a 30-day ceasefire with Russia.

Speaking to reporters on Tuesday, Pentagon Press Secretary Sean Parnell said that "US military aid to Ukraine has been turned back on, as well as intelligence sharing."  

Echoing Parnell's remarks, Alexus Grynkewich, Commander of the US Air Forces Central Command (CENTCOM) reaffirmed that US military aid has resumed. "We've got confirmed reports that it is continuing or is flowing back into Ukraine and, of course, daily reports on the outcome of the intelligence sharing and those efforts," he said. "So, all of that is as it was previously."

The US had earlier halted the delivery of billions of dollars' worth of military aid to Kiev and restricted intelligence sharing following last month's quarrel at the White House between Vladimir Zelensky and US President Donald Trump, who was joined by Vice President J.D. Vance. During the exchange, Trump accused Zelensky of ingratitude and "gambling with World War III" by refusing to seek peace with Russia. The Ukrainian leader was asked to leave the US capital and only return when he was ready for serious negotiations.

Pentagon's announcement came the same day that Trump and his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin had a phone conversation to discuss efforts to achieve a peaceful resolution to the Ukraine conflict. The much-anticipated phone call lasted two and a half hours, with both the White House and the Kremlin describing it as positive.

The two leaders confirmed a month-long mutual suspension of strikes on energy infrastructure and discussed Trump's proposal for a 30-day ceasefire, with the Russian side outlining several key issues that would need to be addressed before implementation.

Kiev, however, swiftly violated the agreement when its military allegedly targeted an energy facility deep inside Russia on Wednesday, despite having announced a pause on long-range strikes.

Putin also emphasized the necessity of establishing a reliable monitoring mechanism for the ceasefire, halting forced mobilization, and preventing further rearmament in Ukraine.

The Russian president also insisted that a key condition for preventing further escalation and a diplomatic resolution of the conflict is the complete cessation of foreign military aid and intelligence sharing with Ukraine.
