Russia Is Providing Iran Intelligence to Target U.S. Forces
(Washington Post) Noah Robertson - Since the war began, Russia has passed to Iran the locations of U.S. military assets, including ships and aircraft, according to three officials familiar with the intelligence. Iran has fired thousands of attack drones and hundreds of missiles at U.S. military positions, embassies, and civilians. The CIA's station at the U.S. Embassy in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, was struck and destroyed in recent days. Parts of the embassy building have been left "unrecoverable" and must be sealed off, according to an internal State Department assessment. Iran is "making very precise hits on early-warning radars or over-the-horizon radars," said Dara Massicot, an expert at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace. "They're doing this in a very targeted way."
