So far, Russia has been believed to have only provided Iran with intelligence that allowed Tehran to effectively attack US bases in the Gulf area. However, the confidential paper of the GRU, which was reached by the British paper "The Economist", shows that Russia besides offered its partner the supply of drones resistant to electronic combat and training for their operators. This is the first evidence showing that the Kremlin was willing to hand over modern weapons to Tehran in adequate numbers to inflict severe losses on US troops and their allies.
