Iran has sent short-range ballistic missiles to Russia, the Wall Street Journal reported on Sept. 6, citing unnamed U.S. and European officials.

Washington informed its allies about Tehran's move in the past few days, sources told the WSJ. The exact type and number of the missiles handed over to Moscow were not specified.

Reuters reported in August, citing unnamed intelligence sources, that Russia may receive "hundreds" of Fath-360 short-range missiles and other ballistic missiles from Iran.

No actual proof then but you can believe us because we wouldn't lie to you, would we?

when they’re actively supplying a genocide

Yeah, and now Iran is too.

Anyway, the people within a country are perfectly able to complain. They don't have to agree with the actions of their government.

Irony encapsulated in a single comment.

Wow this doesn't generate any type of productive discussion. It's an absolute statement which doesn't cut it. Just because people oppose genocide (because yes that's exactly what's happening) doesn't mean they love Hamas. Please widen your intake of sources.

Not only is this tiresome post the literal definition of whataboutism, it's also completely wrong. Israel makes its own SRBMs.

Is Russia running out of Iskanders already? I bet the Houthis are gong to be mad about this. Iran can't supply everybody at once.

Fire a bunch of them and you run out sooner. But juicing the Iranian economy with Russian spending isn't going to hurt the Houthis in the slightest. No more than Ukraine clearing Raytheon's shelves will hurt US production capacity. If there are eager buyers, these factories will speed up units produced.
