U.S. Tells Allies Iran Has Sent Ballistic Missiles to Russia:
Iran has sent short-range ballistic missiles to Russia, a move that will give Moscow another potent military tool to use in the war against Ukraine and follows stern Western warnings not to provide those arms to Moscow, according to U.S. and European officials.

The move comes as Russia has stepped up its missile attacks on Ukrainian cities and infrastructure, killing dozens of civilians in recent days. Washington has informed allies of the Iranian move in the past couple of days, European officials said.

Original original story:

Iran is expected to “imminently” deliver ballistic missiles to Russia to support the Russian invasion of Ukraine.[1] NOTE: A version of this text appears in the September 2 ISW-CTP Iran Update. An unspecified European official told Bloomberg on September 2 that Iran could begin shipping ballistic missiles to Russia "within a matter of days.”

[2] European intelligence sources previously told Reuters in August 2024 that Iran and Russia signed a contract in December 2023 for Iran to deliver Ababil close-range ballistic missiles and Fateh-360 short-range ballistic missiles (SRBMs) to Russia.

[3] The intelligence sources added that dozens of Russian military personnel are currently in Iran training to operate Fateh-360 missiles. Russia’s acquisition of Ababil or Fateh-360 ballistic missiles would likely allow Russian forces to strike Ukrainian near-rear targets while preserving Russia's stockpiles of domestically-produced missiles, such as Iskanders, for deep-rear Ukrainian targets, as CTP-ISW previously assessed.[4]

Debris from downed drone also found near Ukraine’s parliament building after overnight barrage in 11 regions
It also said the Shahed drones were launched from two border regions in Russia as well as from the Russian-occupied peninsula of Crimea.
There were no immediate reports on casualties from the attacks.
 
Watch as a Russian armored column crosses a pontoon bridge over the Seym River in the Kursk region of Russia. As the last vehicle is trying to pass over the sunken bridge, Ukraine strikes it with several high explosive and cluster munitions. The armored column manages to flee the destroyed bridge.

(U.S Sec. of Defense Lyod Austin)
I’m back in Washington after another successful meeting of the UDCG at Ramstein, Germany. Since February 2022, this coalition has committed more than $106 billion in security assistance to Ukraine. And the international community will continue to rally behind Ukraine — our shared security in the 21st century depends on it.

Russia Waging "reckless campaign of sabotage" Across Europe, MI6 & CIA Warned in First-ever Joint Remarks:
Russia is waging a "reckless campaign of sabotage" across Europe, the heads of MI6 and the CIA have warned in their first-ever joint remarks.

Sir Richard Moore and Bill Burns also said the UK and the US faced an "unprecedented array of threats", and said the entire world order was under the most serious strain since the Cold War.

In a newspaper article, the spymasters pointed to Vladimir Putin's war in Ukraine, while also describing China as "the principal intelligence and geopolitical challenge of the 21st century".

They touched on the secret work their agencies are doing to try to reduce the chance of wider conflict in the Middle East and revealed that MI6 and the CIA were "working ceaselessly to achieve a ceasefire in Gaza".

In addition, Sir Richard and Mr Burns underlined the "resurgent" danger posed by Islamic State.

"Today, we cooperate in a contested international system where our two countries face an unprecedented array of threats," Sir Richard and Mr Burns wrote in the Financial Times on Saturday.

'The international world order is under threat'

"There is no question that the international world order - the balanced system that has led to relative peace and stability and delivered rising living standards, opportunities and prosperity - is under threat in a way we haven't seen since the Cold War," they wrote.

Combatting such risks was at the heart of what the intelligence chiefs described as their two countries' special relationship.

Of course Russia will get a vote next.

IMO as the “Fat Electrician” says “It’s never a war crime, the first time”
These are terrifying and will be added to the prohibited list which, IMHO, the US, Russia or China will not sign.

Russia takes another Ukraine town as it bears down on key transport hub

Moscow’s forces are continuing to advance in eastern Ukraine in their attempt to take the whole of the Donbas region

Moscow’s forces are continuing to advance in eastern Ukraine in their attempt to take the whole of the Donbas region.
“Units of the Tsenter grouping of troops liberated the settlement of Memryk,” Russia’s defence ministry said. Memryk, which had a pre-war population of 400, sits on a main road to Pokrovsk, about 12 miles to the east.
The day before, Russian forces were said to have captured Novohrodivka, some seven miles from what has emerged as Moscow’s key target. Ukrainian war blog DeepState said Russian forces had captured the village of Nevelske, to the southeast.
Moscow currently controls about 80 per cent of the region.
