The New York Times writes that Shoigu arrived in Tehran against the backdrop of the escalation of the Iranian-Israeli crisis, provoked by the assassination of the head of the Hamas politburo Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran. The visit of the former Russian Defense Minister to Iran"underlines the close alliance between Iran and Russia, which has strengthened in 2022."
Earlier, Iran provided Russia with military drones, and the countries also signed an agreement on expanding military and intelligence cooperation. Two Iranian officials, one of whom is a member of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), said that Iran had requested advanced radars and air defense systems from Russia. And Russia has begun deliveries. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to publicly discuss the assistance.
