Beat up to 700 kilometers: Iran put Russia's hundreds of ballistic missiles - Reuters

According to the media, about 400 missiles have been put in the Russian Federation, and supply will continue. The hostile army replenishes the arsenals with high-precision Fateh-110 and Zolfaghar missiles. Six sources confirmed that Russia received from Iran a large number of powerful ballistic missiles "Earth-Earth". The details of February 21 were divided into Reuters. These are about 400 missiles, most of which are Fateh-110. The Russian troops also received Zolfaghar missiles.

Three unnamed Iranian interlocutors told about the transfer of ballistics. According to experts, this weapon is able to strike at a distance of 300-700 kilometers. One source reported that the supply began in the beginning of January - after the agreement was concluded at the end of 2023 at meetings of Security of countries in Tehran and Moscow. According to the Iranian military official, there were at least four supply, and in the coming weeks Russia will receive even more rockets.

It is noted that some rockets were shipped through the Caspian Sea, others were transported by plane. "There will be more supply. There is no reason to hide it. We are allowed to export weapons to any country we want," one of the Iranian officials said. The US official reported that the Americans recorded evidence of "active negotiation", but not a sign of starting supply.

The expert of the Institute for International Research by Middleberry Jeffrey Lewis explained that the Missiles of Fateh-110 and Zolfaghar types are high-precision weapons. "They are used for goals that are of high value and need accurate damage," he emphasized. The expert noted that 400 such missiles can cause significant damage. However, according to him, Russian bombing was already "cruel.

" The Ukrainian military source informed that Kiev did not record the use of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation of Iranian ballistic missiles. At the same time, the Excellence of Defense of Ukraine Andriy Zagorodniuk said that against the background of delayed US military assistance, the enemy wanted to replenish his rocket arsenal. "The lack of support for the United States means a lack of land defense in Ukraine.

Therefore, they want to accumulate a lot of missiles and break through Ukrainian air defense," Zagorodniuk explained. Senior Researcher at the Institute for Foreign Policy Research Center in Philadelphia, Rob Lee predicted that Fateh-110 and Zolfaghar missiles would give Russia an even greater advantage on the front. "They can be used to task for military purposes at operating depths, and it is more difficult to intercept the ballistic missiles in Ukrainian air defense," Lee said.
