       #Russia is providing #Iran with targeting information to attack #US forces in the #MiddleEast, the first indication that another major US adversary is participating — even indirectly — in the #war, according to 3 officials familiar with the intelligence.
The assistance, which has not been previously reported, signals that the rapidly expanding conflict now features one of America’s chief #nuclear-armed competitors with excellent intelligence capabilities.#Trump #Putin #geopolitics

       Since the war began Saturday, #Russia has passed #Iran the locations of #US #military assets, including warships & aircraft, said the 3 officials, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because of the matter’s sensitivity.“It does seem like it’s a pretty comprehensive effort,” one of the people said.Moscow has called for an end to the #war, which it labeled an “unprovoked act of armed aggression.”#ProxyWar #ForeverWars #Trump #Putin #law #Congress #WarPowers #geopolitics #MiddleEast

       …When asked this week about his message to #Russia & #China, which are among #Iran’s most powerful backers, #Defense Secretary Pete #Hegseth said that he didn’t have one & that “they’re not really a factor here.” [idiot]…Analysts said that the sharing of #intelligence would fit the pattern of Iran’s strikes against #US forces, including command & control infrastructure, radars & temporary structures, like the one in Kuwait where 6 service members were killed.#war #Trump #Putin #MiddleEast

       The #CIA’s station at the #US Embassy in #Riyadh, #SaudiArabia’s capital, also was struck in recent days.#Iran is “making very precise hits on early warning radars or over-the-horizon radars,” said Dara Massicot, an expert on the #Russia military at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace. “They’re doing this in a very targeted way. They’re going after command & control,” she added.#ProxyWar #ForeverWars #war #Trump #Putin #RegimeChange #geopolitics #MiddleEast

       #Iran possesses only a handful of #military-grade #satellites, & no satellite constellation of its own, which would make imagery provided by Russia’s much more advanced space capabilities highly valuable — particularly as the Kremlin has honed its own targeting after years of #war in #Ukraine, Massicot said.#ProxyWar #ForeverWars #US #Russia #war #Trump #Putin #RegimeChange #law #Congress #WarPowers #geopolitics #MiddleEast

       Nicole Grajewski, who studies Iran’s cooperation with #Russia at the Harvard Kennedy School’s Belfer Center, said that there had been a high level of “sophistication” in the Iranian retaliatory strikes, both in what Tehran has targeted & in its ability in some cases to overwhelm #US & allied defenses.
“They’re getting through air defenses,” she said, noting that the quality of Iran’s strikes appeared to have improved even from its 12-day war with #Israel last summer.#Iran #war #Trump #Putin

       The #Pentagon is quickly burning through its supply of precision arms &# air defense interceptors, people familiar with the matter have told WaPo, underscoring concerns raised by Gen #DanCaine, chair of the #JointChiefs of Staff, as #Trump deliberated whether to approve the operation. The admin has sought to downplay Caine’s assessment.#ProxyWar #ForeverWars #US #Iran #Russia #war #Trump #Putin #RegimeChange #law #Congress #WarPowers #geopolitics #MiddleEast

       Russia’s assistance reshuffles how various countries have engaged in a #ProxyWar since Russia’s 2022 full-scale invasion of #Ukraine. Throughout that conflict, #US adversaries including #Iran, #China & #NorthKorea have provided #Russia with either direct military aid or material support for Moscow’s vast defense industry. The US has given Ukraine tens of billions of dollars’ worth of military equipment & shared #intelligence on Russian positions to improve Kyiv’s targeting.#war #geopolitics

       On Thursday, #Ukraine President Volodymyr #Zelensky posted on X that the #Trump admin had requested assistance in helping protect against Iranian drones & that Kyiv would provide “specialists” in response.
#Iran has been one of #Russia’s chief backers during the Ukraine #war, sharing the technology to produce cheap one-way attack #drones that have repeatedly been used to overwhelm Kyiv’s air defenses & exhaust Western stocks of interceptors donated to protect Ukrainian cities.#ProxyWar #US

       @Nonilex #Trump wants #Ukraine to help him fight his illegal war with #Iran - but he's not providing Ukraine with much assistance to fight their legal war with #Russia, is he?

       @Nonilex Not since #Trump became President for the second time! He is far too much of a fan of #Putin, & has expressed nothing but contempt for #Zelensky! Without #European support, #Ukraine would be sunk!

       @Nonilex That’s what I thought. Seems like it’s keeping its powder dry as it watches the world react to wars in Ukraine & Iran/Gaza before doing anything in Taiwan, for example.

       Russia sharing targeting intelligence with Iran against US forces. Three years ago this was described as alarmist. The coalition now has logistics.
