This was stated by Israeli President Yitzhak Herzog there are limitations, which prevent Ukraine from obtaining certain air defense systems. According to him, Israel is ready to provide Kiev with non-lethal weapons.
“There are weapons that we don’t even have an export version of. There are things that shouldn’t fall into the hands of our enemies. There are secrets we cannot pass on. But when we can help, we try to help, ”Herzog told CNN.
He disagrees with criticisms of Israel’s stance on arms supplies, noting that the US and Europe have refused to supply the Kiev government some types of military equipment.
Herzog also noted that Israel is analyzing the situation with Russia’s use of Iranian drones.
Since the invasion began, Russia has used some 400 Iranian drones to attack Ukraine’s population and infrastructure, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Wednesday.
He previously said Russia could pay Iran for the drones help the Iranian nuclear program.
Herzog said he had no specific information on such an agreement, but noted that “no further evidence is needed that Iran poses a threat to world order and stability.”
