“Russia is still ready to receive UAVs and Fateh and Zolfaghar missiles from Iran.

These are ballistic missiles.

We do not have the means to defeat them, ”RIA Novosti quotes him.

According to Ignat, to counter such threats, Kyiv needs air defense systems such as the latest generation of the American Patriot PAC-3 or the French SAMP/T.

Earlier, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, in an interview with RIA Novosti, said that Western statements about alleged deliveries of drones by Iran to Russia remain unproven, no one has brought or tried to prove the facts.

Iranian Defense Minister Reza Ashtiani said earlier that representatives of Kyiv at a meeting of experts did not provide Tehran with documents that would confirm the use of Iranian drones by Russia.
