Iran will provide more drones and missiles to Russia. Two Senior Iranian officials and two Iranian diplomats have told to the international news outlet.

The Iranian officials recently discussed about the decision taken by the authorities and this move of Iran will enraged the America and other western super powers.

The deal was finalized on 6th of October, when Iran’s First Vice President Mohammad Mokhber, two senior officials from Iran’s powerful Revolutionary Guards and an official from the Supreme National Security Council visited Moscow for talks with Russia about the delivery of the weapons.

“The Russians had asked for more drones and those Iranian ballistic missiles with improved accuracy, particularly the Fateh and Zolfaghar missiles family,” said one of the Iranian diplomats, who was briefed about the trip.

A Western official briefed on the matter confirmed it, saying there was an agreement in place between Iran and Russia to provide surface-to-surface short range ballistic missiles, including the Zolfaghar.

The US State Department assessed that Iranian drones were used in a morning rush hour attack on capital Kyiv, a US official said.

White House spokesperson Karine Jean-Pierre also accused Tehran of lying when it said Iranian drones are not being used by Russia in Ukraine.

The stakes are high for Iran, which has been negotiating with Western states to revive a 2015 deal that would ease sanctions on Tehran in return for limits on its nuclear work.
