Ukrainian President, Volodymyr Zelensky has alleged that Russia is supplying intelligence support to Iran in a bid to sustain and escalate tensions in the Middle East.
In his nightly video address on Monday, Zelensky, referencing Ukraine’s military intelligence agency (HUR), said there were indications that Moscow continues to assist Iranian authorities with intelligence-related backing. However, he did not disclose further specifics.
He also noted that he had received briefings from Ukraine’s domestic security service, the SBU.
Zelensky warned against allowing Russia’s ongoing war in Ukraine to gain advantage from shifting global geopolitical dynamics and fluctuations in oil prices, stressing the international implications of the conflict.
He expressed appreciation to Ukrainian forces for what he described as the precision of recent strikes on Russian oil infrastructure, which he said remains a key source of funding for Moscow’s war effort.
The Ukrainian leader further cautioned that Russia may be preparing a significant attack, citing intelligence reports, as the country continues to defend itself against the full-scale invasion launched in February 2022.
