Russia ordered more ballistic missiles from Iran and North Korea, NATO claims

Russia has asked North Korea and Iran to supply more ballistic missiles to use against Ukraine, Reuters reported , citing an unnamed NATO official.
According to the report, Tehran intends to respond to Moscow’s request. Although the transfer has not happened yet, it will likely take place once the details of the deal are ironed out.
"Iran has declared its intent to do this and that it will send ballistic missiles to Russia, and we have no reason to believe it will not follow through," the source said.
On Feb. 21, Reuters reported based on six sources that Iran had sent a large shipment of ballistic missiles to Russia. According to three Iranian sources, Tehran provided Russia with Zolfaghar missiles capable of hitting targets from 300 to 700 kilometers away.
The provision includes many from the Fateh-110 family of short-range ballistic weapons, such as the Zolfaghar, three Iranian sources said.
The shipments began in early January after a deal was finalized in meetings late last year between Iranian and Russian military and security officials that took place in Tehran and Moscow.
Another senior Iranian official said some of the missiles were sent to Russia by ship via the Caspian Sea, while others were transported by plane.
North Korea has sent about 6,700 containers carrying millions of munitions to Russia since September in exchange for food as well as parts and raw materials for weapons manufacturing, according to officials.
South Korean Defense Minister Shin Wonsik told reporters that the containers might carry more than three million 152mm artillery shells or 500,000 122mm rounds. Russia has used at least 20 North Korean ballistic missiles in attacks on Ukraine since late December, the Security Service of Ukraine said.
