🇮🇷 Iran has shipped hundreds of short-range ballistic missiles to Russia, according to US and European officials, despite warnings of sanctions. This move could escalate Russia's attacks on Ukrainian infrastructure, with Zelensky reporting 4,000 bombs monthly.

He said the United States and its key allies had made clear previously that they “are prepared to deliver significant consequences.”
