Russia has begun supplying the Islamic Republic with advanced air defense systems and radars, The New York Times reported on Tuesday.
Iranian officials, including a member of the Revolutionary Guards, quoted in the report said that Iran requested missile defense systems from Russia in preparation for a possible war with Israel.
“Russia has financial problems and although it maintains economic and cultural ties with Israel, Moscow cannot afford to reject Iran’s request for help because it relies heavily on Iranian drones in its war on Ukraine,” an official in a consultancy on security and intelligence matters said.
Unlike most nations that condemned Iran’s attack on Israel in April, Russia justified the attack.

And it was once thought that Putin was befriending Netanyahu and was favorable toward Israel. What a rotten individual.
Russian has old tanks and equipment for themselves how all of sudden can they supply for Iran with sophisticated weapons to Iran
It should become obvious to any Jew fawning over the degenerate adulterous felon, who is in Putin’s pocket, that arming Iran is anti Israel in the most serious way possible.
RT you must be talking about our brain dead president. Who defends and protects Russia and Iran. Time to get a real president back in office. One that lower prices increased salaries lower unemployment and made this country oil independent and yes an exporter.
1. Russia is a team player and Iran is a team-mate.
2. Russia probably prefers to have the war settle down ASAP for fear that if Trump wins he’ll escalate just because he can and he’s chaotic, the the Democrats are back to Cold War rhetoric as well.
