Following pictures and information published on the “General Staff of the Armed Forces” Facebook account on November 8, 2022, Iranian-made Mohajer-6 drones are used by the Russian armed forces to conduct reconnaissance and combat missions in Ukraine.
A few days ago, Iran has admitted to supplying drones to Russia before the start of the war in Ukraine, so until now Iran has always denied this information. Citing information from the Ukrainian armed, several Iranian drones Shahed-136 have already been destroyed.
Citing information published by the British News television “SkyNews”, Russia would have sent 140 million Euros in cash and several Western weapons to Tehran in August 2022 in exchange for the drones used in Ukraine for a few weeks. The transaction between Iran and Russia would have taken place on August 20, 2022. Two Russian cargo airplanes would have landed at Tehran airport, one carrying cash, the other several Western weapons.
The Ukrainian Ministry of Defense has already published pictures showing Shahid-136 suicide drones parts that were shot down by the Ukrainian army anti-aircraft defense units.
Citing information published by the General Staff of the Ukrainian armed forces, an Iranian-made Mohajer-6 drone was captured and according to indications marked on the components of the drone, it could have been manufactured in February of this year.
