The United States has announced new military aid for Ukraine and vowed to disrupt Russian ties with Iran, which a British envoy said involved Moscow seeking hundreds of ballistic missiles and offering unprecedented military support in return.
Tehran and Moscow have denied Western accusations that Russia is using Iranian drones to attack targets in Ukraine, where officials warned of a winter-long power deficit after repeated Russian attacks on its energy infrastructure.
Britain's UN Ambassador Barbara Woodward said Iran had sent hundreds of drones that Russia had used in Ukraine. Yashin had discussed in a YouTube video evidence uncovered by Western journalists of Russian war crimes in Ukraine.In a post on his Telegram channel, Yashin urged supporters to continue opposing the war.
He later specifically criticised France and Germany, which in 2014 and 2015 brokered ceasefire accords between Kyiv and Russian-backed separatists in eastern Ukraine, saying they had betrayed Moscow by supplying Ukraine with weapons. A plane carrying Ms Griner landed in the United States earlier today, nearly 10 months after she was detained in Russia on drug charges, while television images showed Bout being hugged by his mother and wife after landing in Moscow.
