US EditionIran to send Russia launchers for short-range missiles: Reuters
- U.S. Army General Christopher Cavoli reported that Iran supplied Russia with in excess of 400 short-range ballistic missiles to support its operations in Ukraine.
- The delivery has been delayed due to multiple factors, including ongoing secret nuclear negotiations between the U.S. And Iran facilitated by Oman, as well as technical challenges related to adapting trucks for the missile launchers.
- The missiles, identified as Fath-360s with a 75-mile range, could enable Russia to strike Ukrainian frontline troops, military targets, and border population centers more quickly.

- The missile transfer may intensify Russia's pressure on Ukraine and complicate U.S. Efforts to arrange ceasefires and nuclear negotiations with Iran.
