**LONDON** – The United States has formally accused Iran of supplying short-range ballistic missiles to Russia for its ongoing war in Ukraine. US Secretary of State Antony Blinken, during a joint press conference with British Foreign Secretary David Lammy in London, announced that sanctions would be imposed on those involved in the transfer.
Blinken stated that Russia has received shipments of these missiles and is likely to use them within weeks against Ukraine. He added that the transfer appears to have been completed.
This accusation comes ahead of a joint visit to Ukraine by Blinken and Lammy on Wednesday. Reports of the alleged missile transfer began circulating over the weekend, with US officials confirming intelligence indicating their movement.
Iran has denied providing weapons to Russia for the war in Ukraine, reiterating its previous stance on similar US intelligence findings.
