Iran uses data from Russian satellites to launch attacks on Saudi Arabia. In the past, observers assumed that one of the Russian satellites was chasing an American satellite. Russia transmits data from its satellites to Iran, which is used to launch attacks on military and energy facilities in Saudi Arabia. The AP news agency writes about this with reference to the findings of the independent intelligence company AURORAH Geosignal Intelligence. AURORAH Geosignal intelligence analysts analyzed 40 missile and UAV attacks carried out by Iran's allies - the Yemeni Houthis and the Iraqi militias. Observations showed a correlation between the activity of Russian military satellites and attacks. Cosmos 2000 satellites approached the attack areas for several days before and after the attacks. At this point, Iranian military advisers in Yemen were relaying data received from Russia to plan attacks. This was confirmed by a senior Houthi leader who spoke to the AP. Data from Russian satellites was used to attack pumping stations near the Saudi East-West oil pipeline. Because of this, Saudi Arabia temporarily suspended the supply of oil to several energy facilities. Such attacks benefit Moscow: spikes in oil prices bring hundreds of billions of rubles of additional income to the budget. Analysts also drew attention to the shelling of King Fahd Air Base in Taif in September. At the same time, the Yemeni Houthis did not hit Saudi planes, but an Italian Eurofighter Typhoon fighter plane. According to experts, such a precise attack requires "very special intelligence, which the Houthis and the Iranians simply do not have." Earlier, professional space observers drew attention to the suspicious orbit of the Russian Cosmos-2612 series satellite. The Russian object came very close to the US commercial radar satellite ICEYE-X36 on October 16.
