Russia will use ballistic missiles supplied by Iran to attack the Ukrainian energy sector. It is reported by the Financial Times with reference to the ex-Minister of Defense of Ukraine Andriy Zagorodniuk.

According to Zagorodniuk, Iranian missiles pose a "huge threat."

"They will be sent to destroy the Ukrainian energy system, most likely to the cities," said the ex—minister, quoted by Strana.

In addition, in his opinion, Iranian missiles will be used by the Russian Armed Forces to destroy the infrastructure of Kharkov and Sumy, as well as military targets along the front line.

Intelligence officials, in turn, told the publication that the delivery of Iranian short-range missiles would allow Russia to focus its hypersonic "Daggers" on hitting targets deep in Ukraine.

As reported by EADaily, Iran supplies missiles and combat drones to Russia. This was stated in an interview with Didban Iran by a member of the parliamentary committee on national Security, Ahmad Bakhshayesh Ardestani.

"We have to engage in barter to meet our needs, including the import of soybeans and wheat. Part of the barter includes sending missiles, and the other part includes sending military drones to Russia," Ardestani said, quoted by the Strana newspaper.

As reported by EADaily, Iran has sent to Russia more than 200 Fath-300 ballistic missiles capable of reaching targets at a distance of up to 112 kilometers. This was reported by The Times with reference to a source.

According to the source, the cargo was delivered on Wednesday by ship across the Caspian Sea. According to him, Iranian instructors will train the Russian military in missile control at the test site near Ashaluk in Astrakhan region.

Recall Iran's position on the conflict on Ukraine remains unchanged, Tehran refrains from providing military assistance to either side, the country's permanent mission to the UN said, CNN reported.

So, the diplomatic mission commented on the information of the channel's sources that the Iranian side recently handed over short-range ballistic missiles to Russia for use in combat operations on Ukraine.
