Iran first admitted that it supplied Russia with drones, but that it did before it launched the war in Ukraine. Speaking to reporters, after weeks of denials from Tehran, Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian said: “We gave a limited number of drones to Russia months before the war in Ukraine.”
The United States and the EU have imposed further sanctions on Iran for the supply of Shahed-136 drones to the Russians, with whom they have conducted dozens of raids against civilians and energy infrastructures in recent weeks.
