▲ Ukraine does not feel that the war in Iran is "far away" due to the close ties between Russia and Iran, said Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
The head of state added that Ukraine has clear evidence that Iranian drones contain Russian components.
▲ No ocean or desert will protect against a constantly evolving war, Zelenskyy said.
During his speech in the UK Parliament, he noted that Iran began its drone program many years ago and started supplying drones to Russia about three years ago. He added that the drones used by Iran now include Russian components:
"Ballistic missiles can strike targets thousands of miles away. If evil prevails, it will be able to hit targets on the other side of the world. No ocean or mountain will keep people safe. That is why security matters."
Zelenskyy also noted that an Iranian drone costs around $50,000, while allies shoot them down with missiles costing about $4 million:
"With the spread of drones, mass attacks have become much cheaper. And that means the threat is not limited to wealthy and dangerous figures like Vladimir Putin."
