Iranian Drones in Ukraine Built with Western Parts
(Wall Street Journal) Ian Talley - New intelligence collected from downed Iranian drones in Ukraine shows that a majority of the aircrafts' parts are manufactured by companies in the U.S., Europe and other allied nations, prompting a U.S. government investigation. Despite Iran being the target of comprehensive sanctions, Ukrainian intelligence estimates that 3/4 of the components in the Iranian drones downed in Ukraine are American-made. Many of the parts aren't under export controls and can easily be bought over the internet and shipped to Iran through other countries.
