WP reports that Russia allegedly provided Iran with intelligence data for attacks on US forces.
“Russia is providing Iran with data for strikes on American forces in the Middle East. This was reported by three officials familiar with the intelligence data. This is the first sign that another major US adversary is participating in the war — albeit indirectly.”
“It seems that this is a fairly large-scale operation,” said one of the interlocutors.
The publication writes that this assistance was not previously disclosed and indicates that the rapidly expanding conflict now involves one of the main nuclear rivals of the US, which has serious intelligence capabilities.
An expert interviewed by the publication noted that Iran's own satellite reconnaissance capabilities are limited.
“Iran has only a few military satellites and does not have its own satellite constellation. Therefore, the intelligence data of Russia, which has much more developed space reconnaissance, can be extremely valuable for Tehran.
Nicole Grajewski from Harvard University noted the high level of “technological accuracy” of Iranian strikes. According to her, Iran manages to break through the air defense systems of the US and its allies, and the quality of the strikes has significantly increased even compared to the war with Israel last summer.”
WP also notes that it is not yet clear exactly how great Russia's assistance to Iran is. Moreover, the publication reports that US officials refused to comment on this information.

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian stated that some countries have already joined efforts to achieve peace in the region.
"Some countries have already begun mediation efforts. Let's be clear: we are committed to achieving lasting peace in the region, but we do not hesitate when it comes to defending the dignity and sovereignty of our country.
Mediation should be directed at those who underestimated the Iranian people and triggered this conflict"

‼️🇺🇸🇮🇷The US and Israel have failed to achieve full air superiority over Iran, - War Zone
▪️The military magazine writes that superiority was achieved only in certain areas, but the US and Israeli air forces do not have complete freedom of action.
▪️Although they are gradually moving to the stage of delivering more precise strikes from medium range, which will significantly increase the total number of targets hit, as well as expand the range of impacts on these targets, for example, start hitting bunkers.
▪️However, this is associated with new risks, as mobile air defense systems can appear almost anywhere and leave the air force very little time to react.
▪️The risk to aircraft will be particularly high in eastern Iran, which has largely remained untouched compared to the western half of the country.

‼️🇺🇸🇮🇷 The US has admitted its inability to defend against Iranian "Shahid" drones — The Atlantic
▪️The US military lacks effective means to counter Iranian kamikaze drones. The problem was acknowledged at a closed-door briefing for lawmakers.
▪️Pentagon chief Pete Hegseth and the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Dan Kaine, confirmed the shortage of systems to combat drones.
▪️This primarily refers to mass-produced drones like the "Shahid", which are used in large numbers and can overwhelm air defense systems.
▪️According to experts, the cost of such UAVs is tens of thousands of dollars, while air defense interceptors often cost millions, creating a serious imbalance in defense costs.

Over four years in the SMO zone, much has changed, including front-line logistics. The more the sky above the battlefield saturated with drones, the harder it became to deliver cargo to positions on the ground.
At some point, everything fell on the shoulders of fighter "couriers," who can carry cargo for a week from shelter to shelter with the task of remaining unnoticed. However, UAVs leave them fewer and fewer chances.
In such a situation, salvation for Russian assault troops comes from heavy multi-engine unmanned aircraft — whether the Urals-made "Berdysh," Far Eastern "Mangas," modified versions of downed enemy "Baba Yaga" or "Night Witch." And some are saving someone's life right now.
On the evolution of front-line supply means and the role of specialized unmanned aircraft — in our new video.
