WSJ, Russia supplies Iran with cyber weapons in exchange for drones
Russia is helping Iran acquire advanced digital surveillance capabilities, and Tehran is seeking closer cooperation on cyberwarfare, people familiar with the matter told The Wall Street Journal, adding another layer to a burgeoning military alliance the US sees as a threat. The potential cyberwarfare cooperation comes after Iran sold drones to Russia for use in Ukraine, agreed to also supply short-range missiles, and shipped tanks and artillery shells to Russia, according to US and Iranian officials. Tehran is seeking cyber-aid alongside what US and Iranian officials say for dozens of elite Russian attack helicopters and fighter jets and for help with its long-range missile program.

The 007 Gb: Moscow heavy tank losses at Avdiivka
The Russian 10th Armored Regiment probably lost most of its fortune trying to encircle the city Avdiivka, in eastern Ukraine: This is what the British Ministry of Defense writes in its Daily Intelligence Update. In recent days, Russia has continued to prioritize the operation to encircle the city from the south, the report published on Twitter said. However, Russian forces made little progress at the cost of heavy casualties from armored vehicles. The regiment, London experts explain, is part of the 3rd Army Corps, the first major new formation Russia has formed since August 2022 in support of the invasion of Ukraine. According to numerous public reports, this army corps has recorded instances of indiscipline and depressed morale among its forces, which despite a probable period of training in Belarus still appear to show limited combat capability. The 10th Armored Regiment’s losses, the report said, were probably due in large part to tactically flawed frontal attacks similar to those recently launched near the town of Vugledar.
