Gen. Pat Ryder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While Russia hasn\u2019t yet used them, Ryder said dozens of its military personnel have trained inside Iran on the missile system \u2014 known as the Fath 360. Ryder wouldn\u2019t specify how many Russia has received, but the U.S. Treasury Department said that Moscow signed a contract late last year for <a href=\"https:\/\/home.treasury.gov\/news\/press-releases\/jy2570\" target=\"_blank\">\u201chundreds\u201d of missiles, with the first such batch now arriving.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThis is a deeply concerning development,\u201d Ryder said during a Tuesday briefing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Since its full-scale invasion of Ukraine two years ago, Russia has relied on its partners \u2014 in almost all cases other U.S. adversaries \u2014 to refill its stocks. Iran has been a particularly avid supplier, shipping one-way attack drones, missiles and other lethal aid to Russia throughout the war.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In return, Russia is sharing other information with Iran, including on nuclear and space technology, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.state.gov\/secretary-antony-j-blinken-and-united-kingdom-foreign-secretary-david-lammy-joint-press-availability\/\" target=\"_blank\">Secretary of State Antony Blinken said<\/a> Tuesday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThis is a two-way street,\u201d said Blinken, who is traveling to Kyiv to meet with members of the Ukrainian government.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Last week, U.S. Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin gathered a group of countries that regularly meet to support Ukraine\u2019s self-defense. There, as in past meetings, the officials discussed how to supply Kyiv with enough air defense missiles and batteries. Russia has routinely battered Ukrainian military and civilian targets during the war, and in recent weeks launched its two largest salvos to date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In response, Ukraine has asked repeatedly that the U.S. lift limits on how far inside Russia it can fire its own long-range weapons provided by the U.S. The White House so far has declined to do so, in part out out of concern that looser rules could escalate the war and in part because the long-range ATACMS missiles are scarce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI don\u2019t believe one specific capability will be decisive,\u201d <a
