Trump demands 'unconditional surrender' from Iran as Putin speaks with Iran's president

Elsewhere, three sources, including a senior American official with direct knowledge, told the BBC's US news partner CBS News that Russia had provided intelligence on American positions to Iran.

Russia has long been an ally of Iran. Tehran has provided Moscow with thousands of Shahed drones to be used by Russian troops during the last four years since President Vladimir Putin launched a full-scale invasion of neighbouring Ukraine.

Putin's office said on Friday he has spoken with Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian over the phone, expressing his condolences for the deaths of Iran's supreme leader, other government officials and civilians around the country in the US-Israeli strikes.

On Friday, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that Russia remained in dialogue with Iran's leadership, but he declined to say whether the two countries were continuing military co-operation.
