🇮🇱🇾🇪🇷🇺 Ansar Allah is using Russian satellites to guide its strikes on Saudi Arabia and Saudi-backed forces in Yemen, an anti-Houthi source from southern Yemen told Israel's KAN News. The source says Riyadh is aware of the Russian assistance and has passed the information on to the US — adding "there's no avoiding a significant response" to the escalating attacks.
KANN notes this echoes reporting from roughly two years ago that Russia supplied Ansar Allah with intelligence data to help target foreign and Western shipping in the Red Sea.
The source also said Oman is working behind the scenes to broker de-escalation between Ansar Allah and Saudi Arabia, though prospects currently look slim — Ansar Allah continues raising the stakes, believing the Saudis want to avoid direct confrontation.

Rant About Source
Another egregious example of pro-resistamce telegram channels essentially trying to manifest something into reality without providing enough scrutiny to the source of the information. Do I think that the claim is extremely unlikely? No, in fact I'd argue it's more quite probable that Russia is aiding Yemen similar to how it's aiding Iran. However the source for this post is a fucking Israeli media outlet being informed by a Saudi-Puppet militia.
This is less than worthless in terms of credibility! Why just repeat this without any scrutiny?! Just because you want it to be true that Russia is aiding the Axis of Resistance doesn't make every claim to that effect an absolute truth.
It's annoying and irresponsible to do this.
