The U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency has invited officials from other countries to view the remnants of downed Islamic Republic drones in Ukraine and northern Iraq, stating that it possesses "undeniable evidence" of the Islamic Republic's involvement in the "Ukraine war." According to NBC News, parts of the wings of the Shahed 131 drones, engines, and intact drones with similar body designs and serial numbers have been publicly displayed. Experts from the U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency believe that the Shahed 131 drones lack advanced electronic equipment but can fly at a speed of 200 kilometers per hour while carrying a 20-kilogram explosive warhead. One expert from the agency told reporters that the purpose of showing this evidence to foreign officials and members of Congress is to pressure the Islamic Republic and prove that the drones used to attack civilian areas in Ukraine are designed and manufactured in Iran. Another spokesperson from the U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency stated that Iran's support for Russia in its attack on Ukraine, alongside Moscow's assistance to Tehran in advancing its space program and developing the Islamic Republic's ballistic missile program, reflects the depth of the partnership between the two countries. Previously, John Kirby, the strategic communications coordinator for the National Security Council at the White House, had revealed details of the "hidden dimensions" of increasing and comprehensive military cooperation between Russia and the Islamic Republic, referring to Russia's "brutal war" in Ukraine. Kirby stated that despite deceptive claims of non-intervention, the Islamic Republic continues to stoke the flames of the devastating war in Ukraine by sending "lethal weapons" to Russia. He presented satellite images showing that by May, Russia had received hundreds of suicide drones and related equipment from the Islamic Republic. Babak Taghvaee noted that the Islamic Republic aims to exert influence in America's backyard through drone sales. The U.S. permanent representative to the United Nations stated that the use of Iranian drones violates UN Security Council Resolution 2231. The White House deemed the Islamic Republic's decision to sell drones to Bolivia as "concerning." The U.S. has reported that Iran has sent hundreds of suicide drones to Russia, and Iranian drones have been spotted in Bolivia's skies, prompting Argentina to protest.
