The top commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, Brigadier General Fazlollah Nozari, said that Iran was transferring missiles to Russia.
This was reported by Reuters with reference to Iranian media. It is worth noting that Iran has previously denied the supply of Iranian drones to Russia, which is a proven fact.
Last week, CNN and the Wall Street Journal reported, citing sources, that Iran had transferred short-range ballistic missiles to Russia.
Nozari was quoted by Iran's Labour News as saying, ‘No missiles have been sent to Russia, and this statement is a form of psychological warfare.’
‘Iran does not support any of the parties to the Ukrainian-Russian conflict,’ Nozari said.
Tehran and Moscow have grown closer amid Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, with Iran supplying its Shahed drones to the Russian military.
