These must be magic missiles and Moscow bought them from the same guy who sold Jack his beans.

Because the only 'evidence' is the words of these two individuals - and to describe that as less than flimsy is an understatement.

Iran has every right to transfer weapons to other countries it sees fit.

It does not it make party to the conflict remember.

Coming from the two countries who have transferred huge amounts of offensive weaponry to the Kyiv regime, it is also a textbook exercise in the double standards and hypocrisy of the Atlanticists.

Iran has every right to transfer weapons to other countries it sees fit.

Sure. And actions have consequences. Expect sanctions.

It does not it make party to the conflict remember.

It aligns Iran with the wrong side of this conflict.

Just more of the usual US/ vassal hypocrisy... "Stop doing what we are doing".

Important to observe these are non-UN mandated sanctions, an affront to public decency and illegal.

And they've already sanctioned Iran to the rafters. Sanctions make countries stronger in the long run anyway.

“Russia has now received shipments of these ballistic missiles and will likely use them within weeks in Ukraine, against Ukrainians,”

And in other news... Zelensky has now received shipments of these ballistic missiles and will likely use them within weeks in Russia, against Russians.

Btw, the Iranian missiles are short range. They were ordered to be used against targets in Kursk, which is internationally recognized Russian territory.

Even the US and UK recognized Kursk as sovereign Russian territory.

Russian can fire missiles on its own territory as it pleases.

1 ( +10 / -9 )

The Kremlin is trying to repel Ukraine’s surprise offensive that has claimed hundreds of miles of territory in Russia’s Kursk region.

Battlefield update from the Kursk incursion:

A number of hours ago, unconfirmed reports started about a lightning Russian counter offensive in the Kursk region, with indications a number of villages and settlements had been taken, with heavy AFU losses and even encirclements.

Those reports are looking very much confirmed - video evidence has emerged (still geolocating it) showing Russian armoured columns, backed by drones and artillery, sweeping through towns. One video is quite long and shows what appears to be a large planned combined arms operation. Initial reports indicate a selection of units including the marines (810th, Sevastopol & 155th Vladivostok), 51st Airborne regiment and others including motor rifle formations known to be in the sector took part.

Looks to have opened on the western, northern and perhaps eastern areas. Fluid situation and still unfolding, gathering facts.

The United States and Britain formally accused Iran on Tuesday of supplying short-range ballistic missiles to Russia to use in the war in Ukraine and will take measures to punish those involved.

Washington has been involved up to its ears in the Ukraine conflict since 2014. Them and their satellites are neck deep in the ongoing Gaza Genocide. Not to mention Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria... all wars of imperialist aggression.

For them to point accusing fingers is a classic example of "the pot calling the kettle black".

Keep in mind these same usual suspects cried 'wolf' about a Russian moonraker-style space weapon last year. This is obviously yet another textbook NATO case of pumping smoke through a transparent trumpet, and they obviously have an ulterior motive here.

Btw, the Iranian missiles are short range. They were ordered to be used against targets in Kursk, which is internationally recognized Russian territory.

The supposed shipment are Fath 360 short range (30km to 120km ) and 150kg.

Russia has been pounding Ukrainian troops with FAB 500, 1500, 3000 (that is the kg of each type) glide bombs with ranges of 70km and the USA and UK defence officials say Russia has way more than enough and are cheap to produce/convert.

So so honestly why would Russia start dropping 150kg missiles instead of the smallest FAB 500kg glide bombs?

Make up your mind!

Before you said the missiles are for inside Kursk where Russia has evacuated civilians and no Ukrainian civilians.

The missiles are up to 120km , FAB max 70km but you think FAB are used to hit Civilian targets deeper in Ukrainian territory?

Your logic in not working!

So lets see how your logic works.

The longer range smaller Fath 360 are to hit Ukrainian troops inside Russia Kursk and the shorter range bigger FAB are to hit Civilian targets deeper inside Ukraine.

Ok I will add that to the ghost of Kiev list.

So Russia and supposedly North Korea, Iran and China if we believe the USA and UK, are able to supply Russia with more weapons than all 51 other countries can supply to Ukraine.

PS, so far, the countries backing the Azovian war on Russo-Ukrainians and Russians have accused North Korea, China, and Iran of 'illegally' selling arms to Russia in their attempts to protect their own self image of their roles in WW2.

Despite being relatively easily forced to retreat literally off the edge of continental Europe, Britain has polished a self image of 'standing firm and fighting to the death', and the US, despite flirting with joining on the Axis side before sitting out before eventually joining on the Allied side, has polished a self image of almost single handedly winning the war.

Both these countries have dealt with the fact that Russia singlehandedly caused more casualties, captured more prisoners, destroyed more armor, took more territory than ALL the other Allies combined, and took the capital by insisting that if they hadn't been supplying some of the weapons Russia used in accomplishing that incredible military feat, Russia would have folded the way France, the Netherlands, Sweden etc did.

But if Russia, singlehandedly, can not just hold, but advance in the face of the weapons and ammunition that not just all of the territory Germany held, but that plus those who claim they were the reason Russia was able to advance then, too, well, then those self images are probably lies.

Nor can the combined countries in NATO?

Remember Ukraine itself keeps complaining it is running out of ammunition and weapons.

So 52 (including Ukraine) VS 4 (supposedly) and the 4 are supplying more.

Ukraine is constantly saying it is low on ammunition and weapons, 51 countries are supplying Ukraine while Russia supposedly has 3 countries plus itself and according to all western officials Russia is out firing far more of everything than Ukraine.

How about the Ukrainian corruption, Zelensky is constantly firing and investigating his generals and government officials. Billions have gone missing, in Kharkiv he fired the lot because no trenches, no tank barriers no minefields were actually built, the money was stolen by corrupt officials and fake businesses and that money wasn't from Ukraine it was from the coalition of countries including the USA.

To which I asked if they are so bad (quality/production) why can't the 51 countries including the USA and UK, etc keep up and out supply with what you seem to think are better quality weapons.

This isn't speculation, Zelensky is constantly complaining, the USA DOD says it won't reach Russias Feb 2024 production levels until mid 2025 and now the same DOD just said Russia has increased production as much a ten fold since February. The EU just announced it not only will not meet ammunition production goals but will actually produce less than the previous year which also missed the earlier lower production goal.

No, because Beijing says so.

Washington says no. Should there be ww3 over it, or let people live in peace?

Man, things just ain't the same after the USSR ended. During the Cold War they build all their weapons themselves.

Now the rump state of Russia is buying drones and missiles from Little Old Iran, whose regime has long chanted

Death to America

Death to Great Britain

Death to the Soviet Union.

Things have changed.

No problem, you can't answer the simplest questions without deflecting, got it.

Good self-assessment...

You make claims and accusations but then cannot back them up, so more deflecting.

Got it.

Got owned....

The topic was weapons, you don't like the facts on how poorly the west supplies are going and how Russia and the other 3 are doing a better job, so you insult, invent and deflect by trying to change the subject.

Nonsense...

The topic and your original post was on weapons and ammunition supplies, which once you realised your mistake of trying to make fun of Russia and that the west is doing worse, you again tried changing the subject.

Nonsense X2....

Why not reply to your original comment instead of trying to change the subject?

Corruption or disloyalty? Third time and no answer... Got it....
