US EditionRussia Sharing Intelligence with Iran to Target US Forces, Officials Say
Russia has shared targeting intelligence with Iran, enabling precise strikes on U.S. forces amid a Middle East conflict that has killed six U.S. soldiers, officials said.
- The Washington Post cited three officials saying Russia provided Iran with real-time locations of U.S. warships and aircraft since the fighting began on Saturday, with sources anonymous due to sensitivity.
- Russia and Iran deepened ties with a January 2025 partnership treaty, which analysts cited by The Washington Post say boosted defence and intelligence cooperation, benefiting Moscow amid ongoing conflicts.
- Analysts say the assistance likely included satellite information and intelligence data as Iran's tracking capability weakened since February 28, improving precision against radars and command-and-control targets.
- The report could mark a broader escalation, as officials say China does not appear to be providing military assistance, while the scope of Russia's support remains unclear.
