Multiple reports cite U.S. intelligence sources indicating that Russia has been providing Iran with real-time intelligence, including satellite imagery, on the locations of American military assets such as warships and aircraft in the Middle East. This assistance appears to support Iran's targeting of U.S. forces amid escalating regional conflict. While the full extent of Russia's involvement remains unclear, Iran's independent tracking capabilities have reportedly diminished. Separately, U.S. intelligence suggests China may consider limited support to Iran, though Beijing has largely remained cautious. Official responses from Russia, China, and U.S. agencies have been limited or noncommittal.
