Zelensky says Russia shares satellite targeting data with Iran and trains North Korean troops

Ukrainian intelligence asserts that Russia has supplied Iran with targeting coordinates gathered from its reconnaissance satellites, which have been used to strike U.S. assets in the Middle East. The same sources say Moscow is intensifying its defence partnership with North Korea, providing training for its forces and preparing to accommodate more troops on Russian soil. President Zelensky said Kyiv will make public the proof of the Russia-Iran coordination, noting that Russian satellites monitored four air bases in the Gulf region during a 48-hour period that matched Iranian attacks.

Western officials have previously reported similar Russian assistance to Iran. The story also references a recent CIA director visit to Moscow and a subsequent informal meeting between the CIA chief and Zelensky in Ireland, though details of their discussion remain undisclosed.
