According to Bloomberg, Russia is closely monitoring the IDF’s recent bombings in Iran and is worried about the extent of the damage inflicted on one of its key allies in the region.
A Kremlin insider revealed that Iran has not requested Russian assistance and that Moscow does not plan to offer any.
Russia is especially concerned about potential harm to shared infrastructure and the prospect of a regime change in Tehran—an outcome that could significantly disrupt Moscow’s regional interests and alliances.
The report also notes that while Russia maintains strategic cooperation with Iran, including in energy and military coordination, it is treading carefully to avoid being drawn into direct confrontation.
