“The Wall Street Journal reported Friday that unnamed U.S. and European officials determined in recent days that Iran has delivered ballistic missiles to Russia in what would be a first for the growing military partnership of the two anti-Western allies.

Prior to the WSJ story, Bloomberg and Reuters published reports on Monday and on Aug. 10 respectively, citing unnamed European officials as saying an Iranian transfer of ballistic missiles to Russia was imminent.”

I’m skeptical Iran and Russia have much of an alliance rather than short term tactical cooperation. Russia and Iran are historic enemies and even today have serious territorial disputes.
