Military cargo planes flying from Iran landed at Moscow Airport on Thursday and on Friday.
On October 20, a Boeing 747 cargo plane flew from Tehran to Moscow, according to data from the Flightradar24 platform.
Another Iranian Air Force aircraft followed on Friday. The Ilyushin IL-76 heavy cargo plane developed in the Soviet Union is now on its way back to Iran.
It is believed that both machines have transferred missiles and drones as well as military personnel.
Russia has recently been increasingly using Iranian Shahed-136 kamikaze drones, according to American military reports.
Moreover, according to the United States, the Iranian military has supported Russia in drone operations against Ukraine from Crimea. “In our estimation, Iranian military forces have been in Crimea and assisted Russia in these operations,” US National Security Council spokesman John Kirby said on Thursday, referring to the recent drone strikes against Ukraine.
The Iranians would train and provide technical support to the Russians.
Meanwhile, the EU has decided to sanction Iran for the delivery of combat drones.
The punitive measures are aimed at individuals and organizations involved in the delivery of drones for the attack on Ukraine.
That is pathetic… Iran is the second most sanctioned country around the world (after their new friend Russia)… But again this country has lots of oil and natural gas reserves… Again, Europe is working against its own people… I think there is no return…
