Russia has begun supplying Iran with missiles, a Western official told Bloomberg, marking a significant escalation in military cooperation between the two nations. This development follows previous reports that Moscow has been providing Tehran with intelligence crucial for airstrikes.
The report suggests that a primary objective of the U.S.-Israeli campaign against Iran may have been undermined. Despite months of bombing, Iran has reportedly maintained its missile and drone production capabilities. The cessation of hostilities has allowed Iran to replenish its arsenals, with the potential to significantly increase production of missiles and unmanned aerial vehicles in a short period.
According to the source cited by Bloomberg, Iran has also retained a portion of its anti-ship missile arsenal. This ongoing capability raises concerns about regional stability and the effectiveness of international efforts to curb Iran's military advancements.
