On Sunday, Iran’s top general said that Western claims that its drones were being used by Russia against Ukraine showed the ‘effectiveness’ of Tehran’s unmanned aerial vehicles. Kyiv and its Western allies accused Russia of using Iranian-made drones to carry out attacks against Ukraine in the months-long conflict. In response, Western nations sanctioned many Iranian firms and military generals, including the chief of the staff of Iran’s armed forces, Major General Mohammad Bagheri.
