They do not have the forces nor the munitions to spare. They have been using Iran for resupply! How would that work? They need Iran but they are in a tight spot, sacrifice the Ukraine offensive to aid Iran? Not to mention other regional players would not take to kindly to it. Iran is not lacking in adversaries in the ME and that type of support would backfire.
Putin tested Iran when Wagner Group went rougie. Irans failed to support Putin. He remembers and he knows that he can be trusted with Israel. I am sure he also remembers what happened in the early 1980's in Afghanistan.
He may play the game but IMO he will side with Israel.
UPDATE 25Apr20254
The reporter Pepe with reference the the apparent Israel jet inbound to Iran wih a NUKE on 18Apr2024 and shot down provided an update stating that Russia didnt alert Iran nor provide intel to shoot the plane down. lt could be fictional but Pepe is considered a valid asset.
