Zelensky Triggered By “iranian-provided Russian Kamikaze Drones.” by bn365: 7:53pm On Sep 24, 2022
In reaction to Tehran’s “unfriendly act” of supplying combat drones to Russia, Ukraine said on Friday that it had withdrawn the accreditation of Iran’s ambassador in Kiev and would “seriously reduce” the number of diplomats stationed there.

''kamikaze'' is a Japanese word for a sudden violent attack on an enemy, especially one in which the person or people attacking know that they will be killed.
Kamikaze, were a part of the Japanese Special Attack Units of military aviators who flew suicide attacks for the Empire of Japan against Allied naval vessels in the closing stages of the Pacific campaign of World War II, intending to destroy warships more effectively than with conventional air attacks.

The drone had an immediate impact and was a game changer on the battlefield, causing concern for Ukraine and its Western backers.

The Ukrainian Foreign Ministry said in a statement that providing weapons to Moscow “directly contradicts the position of neutrality, respect for the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine, publicly declared by the top leadership of Iran,” calling it “an unfriendly act that deals a serious blow to Ukraine-Iran relations.”

Iran has always disputed US allegations that it sold attack drones to Russia, which were made public in July.
Social media has been flooded with images and videos purporting to show Russian soldiers in Ukraine employing a kamikaze drone called Geran-2 (Geranium), which is similar to the Iranian-made Shahed-136. Unverified footage from Odessa on Friday shows Ukrainian soldiers pulling out a different kind of drone from the Black Sea. According to reports, the drone resembles the Mohajer-6 observation station.

Kiev has also purchased multiple strike drones from the Turkish company Baykar Makina. Ukraine is also seeking to build its own factory to produce the Bayraktar and Akinci UAV. Co-owned by the son-in-law of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, Baykar has reportedly vowed “never” to sell drones to Russia. That has not stopped Moscow from maintaining diplomatic relations with Ankara, however.

Those people are wicked, Putin should stop his needless war in Ukraine and stop putting the life of Russian people in danger by dragging innocent Russian people into his needless war in Ukraine.
