As Ukrinform reported earlier, on Monday, July 11, a U.S. President's National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan told a briefing that the Iranian government was preparing to hand over several hundred drones to Russia, including strike UAVs, as well as to start training Russian military as early as this month.

Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman Nasser Kanaani has refuted the claim, stating that his country did not sell hundreds of drones to Russia in the wake of the ongoing aggression toward Ukraine.
