MOSCOW, March 18 (Reuters) - Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Wednesday that a Wall Street Journal report that Russia is sharing satellite imagery and improved drone technology with Iran is "fake news".

Russia has been expanding its intelligence sharing and military cooperation with Iran, providing satellite imagery and improved drone technology to aid Tehran’s targeting of U.S. forces in the region, the Wall Street Journal reported on Tuesday, citing people familiar with the matter.
