Ukraine's allies expect that Iran may soon start supplying ballistic missiles to Russia. Bloomberg and UNN reported this with reference to their own sources.
Details
Iran has already given Russia hundreds of drones, but a potential transfer of ballistic missiles would mean a worrying development in the conflict.
Bloomberg's sources declined to say how much or what type of missiles Russia is likely to receive. However, one of the sources acknowledged that deliveries could begin within days.
Addendum
It is noted that Moscow's arsenal of ballistic missiles currently includes Russian and less accurate North Korean equipment.
In particular, today, on September 2, Russia used domestically produced Iskander-M missiles and North Korean KN-23 models to strike Kyiv.
Meanwhile, Ukraine's allies are struggling to fulfill their commitments to strengthen the country's air defense systems earlier this year.
Recall
In August, Reuters reported that Iran may soon supply Russia with hundreds of short-range Fath 360 ballistic missiles. the Russian military is undergoing training in Iran to use these missiles, and a contract for the supply has already been signed.
