TEHRAN (Defapress) - According to two European intelligence sources who spoke to Reuters, Iran is expected to deliver hundreds of ballistic missiles to Russia in the near future.
The sources claimed that dozens of Russian military personnel are currently undergoing training in Iran on how to operate a short-range ballistic missile system. The sources further indicated that these satellite-guided weapons are likely to be used by Russia in its ongoing conflict in Ukraine.
The Iranian Permanent Mission to the United Nations in New York responded to these claims in a statement, acknowledging the long-standing strategic partnership between Iran and Russia across various sectors, including military cooperation.
However, the UN mission emphasized that Iran, on ethical grounds, refrains from transferring any weapons, including missiles, that could be used in the Ukraine conflict until it concludes.
