Zelenskyy Says Russia Supplies Shahed Drones to Iran Amid Regional Tensions

Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy stated that Russia is supplying Iran with Shahed drones, which have been used in attacks against US bases and regional countries. These drones, originally developed by Iran as a cost-effective alternative to missiles, have been widely used by Russian forces since 2022. Iran's envoy to Ukraine dismissed Kyiv's support to the US against these drones as symbolic, denying Iran's involvement in the Russia-Ukraine conflict. The US military and other countries have also incorporated Shahed-type drones into their arsenals amid ongoing regional tensions.
