It doesn’t appear as if the conflict in Iran will be ending any time soon.
Just days after President Donald Trumpsuggestedthat “Operation Epic Fury” — a joint U.S.-Israeli military operation that has taken out Iranian leadership — could last for at least another month, new reports are suggesting that this conflict could be even more drawn out.
According to a blistering report fromThe Washington Post, one of America’s oldest rivals is apparently helping Iran amid this siege.
Citing three unnamed officials, The Washington Post reported that Russia has been aiding Iranian forces by providing targeting information to hit American forces in the Middle East.
The outlet reported that since “the war began Saturday, Russia has passed Iran the locations of U.S. military assets, including warships and aircraft.”
“It does seem like it’s a pretty comprehensive effort,” one of the sources told The Washington Post.
NBC Newsfiled a similar report, citing its own sources alleging that Russia was aiding Iran.
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi did confirm with NBC News that Iran was receiving aid from China and Russia, though he didn’t elaborate on what that exactly entailed.
“They are supporting us politically and otherwise,” Araghchi said.
NBC News further reported, “The intelligence assistance from Russia could help Iran locate American warships, radar or other communication systems, but there is no indication Moscow is helping direct Iranian missile or drone strikes.”
