How has Iran been able to hit American military targets in the Middle East and Saudi Arabia

and other places?

I mean, some targets for them are obvious places that anybody would be able to pick off

a map, places like air bases or even U.S. embassies or consulates.

But for all the damage that has been done to Iran's offensive

capabilities in this war thus far, Iran has somehow also been able to hit things like, reportedly,

a CIA facility in Riyadh, and a naval command and control facility in Bahrain, and U.S. radar facilities that are not clearly

marked on any map and not obvious locations for anybody. How has Iran been able to find

targets like that so they could aim their missiles and their drones at American facilities

like that with such specificity.

Well, the Washington Post and the Associated Press and us here at MS Now have all now reported that Iran has been getting help in targeting American personnel and military facilities,

help from a sophisticated military ally in targeting U.S. personnel

and U.S. military capabilities all over the Middle East. The Washington Post's report on this

was first, and they explained it bluntly and clearly. Quote, Russia is providing Iran with

targeting information to attack American forces in the Middle East.

The assistant signals that the rapidly expanding conflict now features one of America's chief

nuclear-armed competitors with exquisite intelligence capabilities.

Quote, Iran possesses only a handful of military-grade satellites and no satellite constellation

of its own, which would make imagery provided by Russia, much more — Russia, and its much

more advanced space capabilities highly valuable to the Iranians.
