Russia May Use These Iranian Missiles To Turn Out Lights In Ukraine
Newsy
Russia is reportedly purchasing Iranian Fateh-100 and Zolfaghar missiles to use against Ukraine.
Iranian medium range and surface-to-surface missiles are relatively inexpensive and abundant. Russia now is reportedly prepared to buy them for its arsenal.
The Fateh-110 and Zolfaghar missiles could join Iran’s kamikaze drones in accomplishing what appears to be Putin’s plan —destroying Ukraine’s energy grid and other vital infrastructure, just in time for winter.
"It looks like what Russia is really doing is building up its capability to attack fixed targets. These could be energy facilities, key infrastructure and economic targets rather than to attack dispersed military forces," said Anthony Cordesman, the emeritus chair in strategy at the Center for Strategic and International Studies.
