Supplies of Iranian drones to Russia: experts found loopholes used by Iran
With their help, the Russian army strikes civilian facilities in Ukraine so that millions of citizens are without water, heating and electricity. The Russians believe that such a catastrophe will break the morale of Ukrainians and will force them to escape to Europe. According to the Center, four companies deliver drones from Iran to Russia: as we can see, most of them are state -owned enterprises that are subject to Iran's government, which proves Russia's support by local authorities.
Mahan Air, albeit a private organization, but is under US sanctions for supporting the guards. From October 12 to October 18, Pouya Air made five cargo flights from Tehran to Moscow, and most of its park is made up of aircraft IL-76 of Russian production, which indicates cooperation with the Russian Federation. Iran also supplies drones in the Caspian Sea.
According to the documents studied, the ships of the Iranian industrial company, which subordinates the Quirus, deliver spare parts for civilian aircraft and helicopters from the port of Bandar-Endzali to the Russian cities of Astrakhan and Mahachkala. Analysts say that in early November, the Astrakhan Port should deliver 200 drones in disassembled. Russia exports Ukrainian grain to Syria on the route of Sevastopol - Tartus.
Analysts believe that on the way back, Russians can deliver Iranian drones or details to them, produced at the Syrian plant, but there is no confirmation of this information. Iran is currently establishing the production of its UAVs in other countries.
In May, Iranians launched the Tajikistan plant, and there is also an opportunity to organize production in Belarus, since the local "558th aircraft repair plant" in cooperation with Kwand IC "has promoted the creation of its own drones-Kamikadze, which can be a cover for the release of Iranian models.
According to analysts, Russia tries to mask the poor technical equipment of its army, and therefore hides the use of Iranian drones of Shahd-131 and Shahd-136, calling them "Geran-1" and "Geran-2" respectively. However, the US CIA found that instructors from Iran are in the occupied regions of Ukraine and Belarus, helping to target UAVs on Ukrainian cities. A new group of Iranian specialists came to the southern part of Ukraine.
Earlier it was written that Israel destroyed the Iranian drones in Syria. On October 21, the Israeli army struck a rocket strike on an industrial facility located in Damascus west. Recently, dissidents from the Iran National Resistance Council have stated that the official Iranian authorities had transferred more than 3,500 battle drones to Russia, including Shahd-129, Mohajer-6, Shahd-136 and Shahd-131.
