Ukraine to help the US counter Iranian drones in the Middle East
The Ukrainian military may soon join operations to deter Iranian drones in the Middle East. This was reported by the Reuters.
According to the publication, the United States is considering using Ukraine's experience in fighting Iranian attack drones, which are actively used in modern wars.
The unique experience of the Ukrainian military
President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that Ukraine is ready to help its allies in countering Iranian drone technology.
First of all, it is about fighting kamikaze drones Shahed-136 and Shahed-131, Iran produces for striking ground targets. It is these drones that Russia is actively using in its war against Ukraine, attacking energy infrastructure and cities.
Ukrainian air defence forces and mobile groups have developed effective tactics for detecting and destroying such drones over the years of war.
Cooperation with the USA
As part of the cooperation, Ukraine can provide its partners with advice, training and practical experience in combating massive drone attacks.
According to experts, the Ukrainian military has become one of the most experienced in the world in countering kamikaze drones, having destroyed thousands of such devices during the war.
Security in the Middle East
The strengthening of cooperation is due to the escalation of the situation in the Middle East and the growing role of drones in modern conflicts.
The United States and its allies are seeking to rapidly strengthen counter-drone systems, as Iranian drone technology is actively spreading among Tehran's allies in various regions of the world.
Ukraine's experience in this area is seen as one of the most practical and effective.
