🇷🇺🇮🇷 Russia is reportedly shipping explosives to Iran to help it fight the U.S.

Moscow is sending TNT, drone parts, and ammunition to Tehran to rebuild its missile and drone arsenal after months of war with America.

The deliveries allegedly move across the Caspian Sea, a route conveniently out of reach of Western navies and sanctions, on more than two dozen mostly-sanctioned Russian ships.

Analysts think it’s a sign U.S. and Israeli strikes have hit Iran’s weapons factories hard enough that it now needs outside suppliers.

Russia and Iran are fighting separate wars, but with Washington looming over both, they’re clearly leaning on each other to get through them.
