Iranian drones in the war between Russia and Ukraine
Russia makes extensive use of Iranian drones to attack Ukraine’s civilian infrastructure. Today it is believed that Iran has provided Russia with more than 400 Shahed 131, 136 and Mohajer drones, and Russia has almost completely exhausted this stock.
However, Russia, with the help of Iran, is building a plant for the production of drones on its territory, which in the future may affect the war in Ukraine.
The new plant will provide Russia with a new stockpile of drones that is “an order of magnitude larger” than what it could have bought from Iran before.
