Western intelligence has revealed that Russia is close to shipping ally Iran with drones, medicine and food amid its war with the US. According to detailed Western intelligence reports, Moscow’s shipment will allow Iran to keep up its efforts in the war. Two officials briefed on the intelligence revealed that senior Russian and Iranian officials began secret discussions about delivering drones, as reported by the Financial Times. The discussions between Iranian and Russian officials reportedly occurred days after Israel and the US struck Tehran. The shipment was processed in early March, with delivery expected by the end of the month. Russia’s shipment of drones to Iran will be the first sign of evidence that the European nation has supplied Iran with lethal support since the war began.
