At the same time, she confirmed America’s concern that Iran may transfer more missiles to Russia, which seeks to use them in the war against Ukraine. However, according to the spokesperson, there is still no documentary evidence of such transfers to the Russian side.

As Ukrinform reported earlier, on Tuesday the White House published new facts that indicate the strengthening of military cooperation between Iran and Russia, as well as the possible preparation for the transfer of Iranian missiles to Russia to be used for the war against Ukraine.
