Iran admitted, today, Saturday, to provide Russia with drones, as the Iranian Foreign Minister, Hussein Amir Abdullah, announced that the Islamic Republic has provided Moscow with a limited number of drones, before the war in Ukraine, according to the Islamic Republic News Agency “IRNA”. .
The Foreign Minister, however, denied supplying Tehran with missiles since the war’s outbreak in late February or providing any further weapons since then.
The use of Iranian Kamikazi drones in the conflict with Ukraine has recently drawn criticism from Kiev and the US authorities.
According to reports, Iran dispatched military men to the Crimea, which Russia occupied, to teach the Russians in the use of drones and offer technical support.
Tehran has thus far refuted this.
Abdullah stated a week ago that he was willing to meet with Ukraine on a one-on-one basis to discuss claims that Russian and Iranian drones were used in the conflict in Ukraine.
Iran is aware that Russia has provided it with drones.
