Russian satellites may have helped Iran's allies launch attacks on Saudi Arabia, according to the Associated Press. Analysts at Aurora studied 40 missile and UAV attacks from July to October and found that Russian reconnaissance satellites flew over the target areas before all of the attacks. Particularly intensive surveillance was observed before attacks on the "East-West" oil pipeline. A senior Houthi official confirmed to the AP that Iranian advisers provided the group with data from Russian satellites to select targets. A Saudi official also stated that Russian intelligence was used in attacks on US facilities.
