Shafaq News/ The British newspaper "The Guardian" revealed that Russia receives shipments of military munitions originating from Iraq, in order to be used in its military campaign in Ukraine, through assistance provided by Iranian arms smuggling networks.
The Guardian published its report with the translation of Shafak News Agency, based on members of Iranian-backed Iraqi factions, and regional intelligence services familiar with the operation, noting that as part of this operation, RPGs and anti-tank missiles were transferred, in addition to launching systems. Brazilian-designed missiles, to Russia from Iraq, in light of the faltering Russian campaign last month.
The British report indicated that Iran has also donated to Russia the "Bavar 373" missile system, which is manufactured in Iran, which is similar to the "S-300" system.
The report considered that the use of the world of arms smuggling reflects a radical shift in the Russian strategy, by forcing Russia to rely on Iran, its military ally in Syria, after the new sanctions imposed by the invasion of Ukraine.
The report pointed out that Iraq has hosted US and Western forces since the overthrow of Saddam Hussein in 2003, while Washington has trained and armed many Iraqi army units and special forces.
While the report indicated that Iraq has become awash with weapons after two decades of war, it pointed out that many of these weapons have passed into the hands of Iranian-backed militias opposed to the American presence, but since 2016 they have been officially integrated into the Iraqi armed forces as part of the war against ISIS.
The report quoted a militia leader controlling the Shalamcheh crossing as saying that RPGs and anti-tank missiles in the possession of the PMF were transferred from Iraq to Iran on March 26, where they were received by the Iranian army and then transferred to Russia by sea.
The report also quoted a source within the militia as saying that the Popular Mobilization Forces dismantled two pieces of the Brazilian-designed "Astros 2" missile launcher system, known in Iraq as "Sejjil-60", and transferred them to Iran on April 1.
A source in the popular crowd told the British newspaper, "We don't care where the heavy weapons go because we don't need them now. Everything that is against the United States makes us happy."
The report stated that three cargo ships, two flying the Russian flag and the other flying the Iranian flag, crossed the Caspian Sea from the Iranian port of Bandar Anzali to the Russian city of Astrakhan, located on the Volga delta.
The report quoted a military affairs expert, Yoruk Ishik, who is based in Istanbul, that what the Russians need in Ukraine now are missiles, noting that this requires skill in transportation because these weapons are fragile and capable of explosion, adding that such activities cannot be monitored by satellites. Because it can be transported in large boxes and normal shipping containers.
The report also quoted Muhannad Haj Ali, a researcher at the Carnegie Endowment, as saying that missile launch systems are a type of advanced weapon that can make a big difference on the ground in Ukraine.
He pointed out that the popular crowd controls a large part of the border area with Iran, which makes the implementation of this deal easier.
Other countries like China should be very careful about giving arms to Russia now, given the new sanctions situation. And Iran, as part of this axis, wants to make sure that Russia does not lose its power in this conflict.
"If Putin's regime is shaken, it will have huge repercussions on Iran, especially in Syria, where Damascus relies on Russian air support and Russian coordinates to avoid the outbreak of a direct confrontation between it and Israel," Haj Ali said.
