Ukrainian intelligence has revealed that Russian satellites have been instrumental in providing detailed imagery of military facilities and critical sites across the Middle East, including US military bases. The assessment, which covered 24 surveys in 11 countries from March 21-31, indicated that Iranian forces launched attacks on these sites shortly after they were surveyed. Notably, a Russian satellite imaged the Prince Sultan airbase in Saudi Arabia just days before it was struck by Iranian missiles on March 27, damaging a US E-3 Sentry aircraft. The report also suggests collaboration between Russian and Iranian hackers in cyber operations. Meanwhile, Ukrainian forces reported successful strikes on Russia's Ust-Luga oil terminal in the Leningrad region, causing damage to storage tanks. On the ground, Russian attacks in Ukraine have led to multiple civilian casualties, including four deaths in Nikopol and four elderly individuals in Kherson. Ukrainian drone strikes reportedly killed five civilians in Russian-occupied territories, a claim that Ukraine denies.
