The Russian Federation has launched an Iranian satellite: it can be used for tracking Ukraine

Hayam's satellite was launched from Kazakhstan. Iran rejected suspicions that the Russian Federation would be able to spy for Ukraine with this device. The Russian Federation with the help of the Soyuz rocket successfully launched the Iranian satellite "Hayyam" from the Russian cosmondum "Baikonur" in Kazakhstan.

Earlier, journalists reported that the aggressor state could use the apparatus for tracking Ukraine, although Tehran assured that its appointment was to observe Iran's border and collecting environmental data. About it on Tuesday, August 9, writes Bloomberg. Today, Iran's state television reported that the Hayyam satellite will be used to monitor Iranian borders, gathering data on agriculture, environment, natural resources and natural disasters.

The first pictures began to send the device within half an hour after entering orbit. The Iranian Space Agency assured that the satellite will be used solely in favor of Iran, and Russia will not be admitted to the data collected by means of the device. "No other country will have access to this information. Rumors about the use of satellite images for the military purposes of another country are true," the department said.
