There is currently no official data on Iran's intention to strike Ukraine with missiles, stated the head of the National Security and Defense Council's Center for Countering Disinformation, Andriy Kovalenko, on social media on Tuesday, reports UNN.
There is currently no official data on Iran's intention to strike Ukraine with missiles. I will add separately to avoid manipulation: there is currently no official data (specifically official) on the preparation of such a strike. But Iran potentially has the weapons for such actions
His statement came after Iranian officials intensified their threats, with a statement by senior Iranian lawmaker Ebrahim Azizi that "Ukraine may also soon understand that Iran does not leave actions unanswered."
This happened after a drone strike in the Caspian Sea. On Saturday, Iran summoned Ukraine's chargé d'affaires in Tehran over an attack on an Iranian merchant ship in the Caspian Sea, which resulted in the death of one sailor and the injury of another, Anadolu reported.
Israel's Channel 12 noted that Ukraine's ambassador to Israel informed him that the ships are transporting Iranian weapons to Russia to aid it in the war against Ukraine, The Times of Israel reported.
Foreign Minister Andriy Sybiha called Iran's threats against Ukraine unjustified and baseless. "The regime in Tehran is a direct accomplice in Russia's aggression against Ukraine, fueling Moscow's criminal war with weapons that have been killing Ukrainians since 2022. Iran has no right to play the victim, let alone justify its threats with absurd references to the UN Charter," Sybiha stated.
