Iran following drones allegedly will supply Russia with short-range ballistic missiles for strikes on Ukraine. This statement was made by the American edition of The Washington Post..
American newspaper, citing its own Pentagon sources, claims, that Iran and Russia allegedly entered into a contract for the supply of short-range ballistic missiles to the Russian army and even calls them. As stated, soon Russian missile troops will begin to strike at Ukraine with missiles “Fateh-110” with a range of 300 km and the mass of the warhead 448 kg and “Zolfaghar” with range 700 km and the mass of the warhead 579 kg.
According to WP, an agreement in principle between Tehran and Moscow was allegedly concluded back in September, the details of the deal are being settled now. However, there is no evidence of a deal, only a link to some unnamed sources. At the same time, the same sources claim, that Iran is preparing to send a large new batch of Muhajer-6 and Shahed-136 drones to Russia. If with “martyr moped” everyone is already well acquainted, it Muhajer-6 – this is a strike drone with guided weapons, analogue of the Turkish Bayraktar-TB2.
Meanwhile, other publications are also discussing the possible supply of Iranian ballistic missiles., including not only American. True, everything is only at the level of assumptions and rumors, there are no specific statements in this regard.. The assumption is made, that since Iran began to supply drones to Russia, then why not supply him with ballistic missiles. All this is subject to approval., that Russia has allegedly already run out of its own missiles, and she cannot produce new ones due to sanctions. This is where Iran allegedly comes to the rescue with its missiles, of which he not only has a lot, but a lot, including winged. The Iranian press also pays attention to this topic., one of the publications, published in French, even claimed, that the Russian army is already testing Iranian missiles, the attack on Bogorodichne in the Donetsk region was allegedly carried out by a medium-range ballistic missile “Khyber Shikan”, having a range 1450 km. The rocket is the latest and only in February was officially presented to the IRGC.
