Ukraine to slash ties with Iran over ‘evil’ drones supply to Russia

Ukraine said on Friday it would downgrade diplomatic ties with Iran and strip the ambassador of his accreditation over what it called Tehran’s “unfriendly”
decision to supply Russian forces with drones.
Earlier in the day, Ukraine said it had downed four Iranian-made “kamikaze” unmanned aerial vehicles, prompting President Volodymyr Zelenskiy to complain Tehran was harming Ukrainian sovereignty and its citizens.
Ukraine and the United States have accused Iran of supplying drones to Russia, something Tehran has denied.
“Supplying Russia with weapons to wage war against Ukraine is an unfriendly act that deals a serious blow to relations between Ukraine and Iran,” said a statement on the foreign ministry’s website.
