Russia is providing Iran with intelligence to counter American airstrikes and improve the accuracy of its own attacks.

This was reported by NBC News, citing U.S. and European officials.

The intelligence helps the Iranian military detect American forces during airstrikes and strengthen the defense of its own facilities.

This data also allows Iran to improve the accuracy of its own missiles and strike drones.

Previously, the countries signed an agreement on a strategic partnership in the field of defense and security.

It should be noted that Russia is also providing Iran with satellite imagery of the Persian Gulf region and U.S. military facilities located there.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky specified that on July 19–20 alone, Russian satellites photographed four air bases: two in Bahrain, one in Jordan, and another in Kuwait.

  1. This has been going on since day one of Taco’s idiotic war. We can all rest assured that Taco, as one of America’s worst traitors of all times, doesn’t give a sh!t how much his ruskie boyfriend is helping Iran.

      • I don’t understand what you’re saying. Trump isn’t doing anything to Russia, despite working against the US. In my mind that’s being a traitor

      • What are you talking about? The article explicitly states ‘The {ruSSian} intelligence helps the Iranian military detect American forces during airstrikes and strengthen the defense of its own facilities.’

        Condemning the orange fart for not responding to this in the most harsh way possible to protect US Forces makes one root for iran? I think your schnaps has a few percent too much my friend. 😵‍💫

      • You make absolutely no sense. How in the hell can you confuse my statement with rooting for Iran? Can you explain that for me and the audience?
        Why don’t you finally release your retrained morals and sort your inner conflicts? Admit that Trump is an evil son of a bitch and his worshipers completely brainless morons. You’ll feel much better.

      • Lets not forget that President Obama had negotiated the deal that would stop Iran from obtaining a nuclear bomb, and trumpkov ripped up that deal in his first term. So by your logic, trumpkov wants Israel and the US to be nuked.
