The Kremlin has chosen not to disclose whether the United States issued a warning regarding intelligence sharing with Iran, as tensions in the Middle East reach a critical point entering the 11th day of conflict. The situation has escalated following strikes by American and Israeli forces on Iran, which began on February 28, resulting in Iranian retaliatory attacks across the Gulf. Reports suggest that Moscow may have shared sensitive military information with Tehran, including the movements of U.S. warships and aircraft in the region.

U.S. special envoy Steve Witkoff expressed a strong warning to Russia about the potential consequences of sharing targeting data with Iran. This warning has raised concerns over the implications of such intelligence sharing for both American and Israeli military operations. The Kremlin's spokesman, Dmitry Peskov, evaded questions about Witkoff's statements or if there had been discussions between U.S. President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin on this matter during their recent phone call.

The Kremlin's silence on this topic highlights the complexities of international relations in the context of the ongoing conflict in the Middle East. As the U.S. continues to exert pressure on Russia to limit its cooperation with Iran, the dynamics between these nations could significantly impact military strategies and geopolitical stability in the region. The lack of transparency from Moscow may further complicate relations with Washington, especially amid heightened tensions following escalated military actions by both sides.
