Will the military conflict against Iran turn into a US-Russia conflict?
As the military strikes by the US and Israel continue, new worrying developments threaten to pit Russia against Donald J. Trump’s administration, after more than a year of efforts to normalize diplomatic and commercial relations between Washington and Moscow.
Reports arose today saying that Russia has provided Iran with information to help Tehran strike American warships, aircraft, and other assets in the region – doing, in fact, the same that the US has been doing for Ukraine against Russian troops and assets.

“The people, who were not authorized to comment publicly on the sensitive matter and spoke on the condition of anonymity, cautioned that the U.S. intelligence has not uncovered that Russia is directing Iran on what to do with the information.”
This is the first indication that Moscow is involved in the military conflict between the US and Israel against Iran.

“The intelligence assistance is the first known assistance Russia is giving to Iran, as the U.S. and Israel continue to strike at the Iranian regime and its military capabilities. The intelligence aid from Russia was first reported by the Washington Post.
