President’s Office reacts to Iran’s supply of kamikaze drones to Russia

“Iran has decided to support Russia by giving modern drones to backward country for the murders of Ukrainians. After years of sanctions, isolation, an abominable reputation – Iran’s elite still has not realized how to rise from the bottom of civilization,” Podolyak said in a tweet, Ukrinform reports.

As reported, the Russian troops increased the number of air attacks using Iranian Shahed-136 kamikaze drones in the south of Ukraine. In particular, the enemy once again attacked the port infrastructure of the town of Ochakiv, Mykolaiv region, with these drones. One of the two drones was shot down by Ukrainian units, the other hit a port tug.

In Dnipropetrovsk region, an enemy kamikaze drone fell into a private yard, causing a fire. Six people were injured.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine informed charge d'affaires ad interim of Iran in Ukraine about the decision to revoke the accreditation of the Ambassador of Iran to Ukraine and to significantly reduce the number of embassy’s diplomatic employees due to the facts of the use of Iranian-made weapons by the Russian troops.
