Well supportedReported by 13 independent outlets

Russia has provided Iran with real-time military intelligence, satellite imagery, radar data, and tracking information on military assets. Russia has also supplied Iran with materials for drones, anti-jamming systems, and technical expertise for cruise missiles and drones. Separately, Masoud Pezeshkian stated that peace negotiations would fail without pressure and threats, noting that sanctions on Iran affect regional trade, connectivity, and energy.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The deepening military and trade ties between Russia and Iran during the Middle East conflict raise geopolitical tensions. The conflict, which began with US and Israeli strikes on Iran in February, has led to Iran blockading the Strait of Hormuz, a crucial waterway. This instability has contributed to market volatility, with Brent crude prices surging above $100.

Amnesty International investigated a missile strike in Iran, while Russia supports Iran and Masoud Pezeshkian addresses US actions.
