Iran Delivered Ballistic Missiles To Russia, Western Media Claims Again

File image.

Iran has delivered a fairly large shipment of short-range ballistic missiles to Russia, according to Western media reports on September 6.

An unnamed United States official told the Wall Street Journal that the ballistic missiles “have finally been delivered” to Russia.

The shipment involves a couple of hundred ballistic missiles, Western officials told the newspaper, without providing any details on the type of missiles. Iran has a variety of such missiles, with ranges stretching up to more than 800 kilometers. Previous reports alleged that Russia was interested in the Fath 360 missile, which has a range of up to 120 kilometers and is armed with a 150 kg warhead.

“This is not the end,” a senior European official said, according to the newspaper, noting that Iran is expected to “keep weapons flowing into Russia”

“We have been warning of the deepening security partnership between Russia and Iran since the outset of Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine and are alarmed by these reports,” said White House National Security Council spokesperson Sean Savett commenting on the report. “Any transfer of Iranian ballistic missiles to Russia would represent a dramatic escalation in Iran’s support for Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine.”

Bloomberg also reported on the alleged Iranian delivery. According to the news outlet, the U.S. informed its allies of the ballistic missile shipment. Washington and the European Union are expected to unveil a new batch of sanctions on Iran for this.

The latest reports by the Wall Street Journal and Bloomberg mirror many Western media reports from the last two years. In all cases, no evidence confirming that Iran has delivered ballistic missiles to Russia was presented. Officials from West even denied similar reports in the past.

Russia already produces the highly-capable Iskander-M short-range ballistic missile, and has ramped up production and use of the system in recent years.

The reports about an Iranian ballistic missile shipment to Russia came as Ukraine is pressuring its backers to be allowed to strike deeper into Russian territory using Western-made weapons, including the American-made MGM-140 ATACMS ballistic missiles. Thus, these reports may be meant to justify such a decision by Washington and its allies.

what a game changer. nato is not scared by russian nuclear deterrence so they will be scared by some 3rd grade short range ballistic missiles, which are probably copied nazi v2 with some minor enhancements. the russian problem is not dragging behind in terms of weapons. the russian problem is 1. putin is a first class asshole 2nd. his corrupted generals can’t do anything else then pleasing putin.3.russia spend all effort in behind the curtain fights in kremlin instead of fighting their enemies!

and the result is clearly visible in kursk operation which caught russkies totally offguard, ukies advanced in less then week deep into russian territory and russians were not able to encircle them, cut their supply lines and destroy them so now they dig in, turned every town and every village into a fortress and it will took russians 5 years and 50.000 their own soldiers killed to take this area back. what a humiliation.

i think the russians will let nato continue to fight in kursk… they will be destroyed a little at a time, as the russians advance into the donbass… by now, even the stupidest american warmonger understands that ukraine is a walking dead.

unfortunately they knew this after the first few months. but us government is highly corrupt. and the defense companies and bankers run policy for self enrichment…

well, duuuuuh! russia ran out of missiles 2 years ago, according to every politician, newsoutlet, and western “intelligence” (heh) narrative.

its almost completely pathetic how our propaganda in the us and the eu works. and more pathetic is the idiots that actually swallow it all, no questions asked.

people wondered why the germans were so guillable to follow every nazi narrative. well, just look at the eu. they are doing it again.

clowns!

you’re quite wrong, tom. 10 million russians have been killed, 97% of the russian army has been wiped out and they have run out of tanks, missiles, shells, socks and condoms. those left have only shovels and washing machine chips left to fight with and they are all paralytic drunk on vodka anyway. like houhout says, it’s all a disaster. putin is at his wits end and about to fly out to north korea in exile. it says so in my daily torygraph, so it must be true..

ukraine uses american misiles, british missiles, french missiles, german missiles, what ever missiles, it’s ok, of course they have a right to use them, no problem. russians are suspected of using iranian missiles, this is immoral!!! totally unacceptable!!! wrong!!! this must be stopped!!!

it would be poetic justice if iranian “stuff” were to send those so called soldiers of fortune-mercenaries working in ukraine into early retirement.

stop the genocide of gaza. stop arming zionist war criminals.

the amerikunts and their vassals have been supplying advanced weapons, technical support, targeting information to the ukronazis. now the boot is on the other foot. russia is returning the favour and supplying advanced weapons to iran, dprk, hamas, hezbollah, houthis, china. soon putin can start bragging about how he has supplied weapons to kill amerikunts.

nah iran is just sending realistic looking, unarmed, fifty cent, ballistic missile decoys to waste more of those multimillion nasams s-300s patriots, iris-t, hawks and other franken sams. while russia will use their deadly well proven zirkons, iskanders and kinzhals to deliver le coup de grâce to the moribund nato unholy alliance.
