Russia Shares U.S. Military Target Locations with Iran as Conflict Escalates

Russia is providing Iran with intelligence on the location of U.S. forces during the ongoing conflict in the Middle East. Sources report that this comprehensive effort involves sharing data to help Iran identify U.S. military targets. This intelligence sharing comes as an Army memo revealed that Iran surveilled a site in Kuwait where U.S. service members were killed. The U.S. has responded by escalating strikes against Iran's military arsenal. The total number of U.S. service members killed in the conflict has reached six. This development follows earlier statements from the White House that diplomacy was the first option for handling tensions with Iran.
