Israel destroyed Iranian drone assembly plant, where Russia wanted to buy combat UAVs
The Israel Defense Forces carried out several airstrikes on targets near Damascus, destroying an Iranian drone assembly plant.
What we know
This is reported by the London-based monitoring group Syrian Observatory for Human Rights. The unmanned drone factory using Iranian technology was completely destroyed. Before that there was information about an attack on a weapons depot.
This news could have been skipped, but not in light of recent events. The United States is actively reporting that Iran may start supplying strike drones to Russia. A Russian delegation has visited Iran at least twice to learn about the capabilities of combat drones Shahed 191 and Shahed 129. In addition, Vladimir Putin flew to Tehran the other day.
The United States has not yet seen any signs of drone deliveries to russia. In spite of this the White House threatened Iran with sanctions.
