Russia provided Iran with satellite intelligence on Israel’s energy system, - Zelenskyy
Russia has provided Iran with satellite intelligence on Israel’s power grid, covering a total of about 50–53 facilities.
This was reported by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in an interview with the AP, according to Censor.NET.
What is known
The president emphasized that Russia is helping Iran launch attacks against Israel. These attacks target civilian infrastructure with no military purpose.

Zelenskyy noted that this is reminiscent of life for Ukrainians during shelling by Russia, when they target Ukraine’s power grid or water supply systems.
"Of course, all the experience Russia has gained during the war against Ukraine is being passed on to Iran. This was the case with the 'Shaheds'—drones identical to those used by the Russians, only under a different name and upgraded to newer models," he said.
