Russia has been aiding the Houthis' assault on Western shipping lanes in the Red Sea by providing them targeting data. 

As the Houthis ramped up their strikes on the U.S. and other nations' postures in the region after the Oct. 7 attack on Israel, Russians offered satellite data allowing them to expand their strikes, take out multimillion-dollar U.S. drones and hit ships sailing through the Red Sea and the Suez Canal, through which 12% of global trade passes, according to a Wall Street Journal report. 

Each munition used to intercept a Houthi strike costs the U.S. upwards of between $1 million and $4 million. 

The data passed through Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC). 

The satellite data would represent direct Russian involvement in attacks on the U.S.

In response to the report, Russia's Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova told Fox News Digital: "I am focused on U.S./U.K. providing satellite data to [Kyiv] regime to commit terrorist attacks against civilians."
