Timing of the Missile Transfer
While the exact timing of the missile delivery is unclear, it aligns with an intensification of Russia’s missile and drone attacks on Ukrainian cities. Ukraine is currently preparing for large-scale Russian assaults on its energy infrastructure, especially as winter approaches. President Volodymyr Zelensky has urgently called on Ukraine's allies for more air defense systems to counter the growing threat.
Escalation of Iran's Military Support
Iran’s provision of ballistic missiles represents a new level of involvement in the Russia-Ukraine conflict. Prior to this, Iran had already supplied Russia with hundreds of drones, which Russian forces have used in various operations against Ukraine. Additionally, reports have surfaced that Russia has been constructing a drone manufacturing facility with Iran’s assistance, further highlighting the strategic partnership between the two countries.
Missile Negotiations Began Last Year
Negotiations between Russia and Iran to acquire these close-range ballistic missiles began as early as September 2022. During this time, Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu traveled to Iran to review Iran’s missile systems. The visit included a display of Iran's Ababil close-range ballistic missile systems, demonstrating the potential for deeper military cooperation between the two nations.
