Iranian media reports strike on drone storage site with Ukrainians, Foreign Ministry denies it
Fars news agency, which is linked to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, claimed on the morning of 28 March that Iran struck a storage site for Ukrainian unmanned systems in Dubai along with specialist personnel who supposedly were at the site.
Source: Israeli media outlet Ynet, citing Fars; Ukraine's Foreign Ministry spokesman Heorhii Tykhyi
Details: Fars is claiming that 21 Ukrainians were at the site at the time of the strike and have "probably died".
Ukraine's Foreign Ministry has denied the claim.
Quote from Tykhyi: "This is a lie. We officially deny this information.
The Iranian regime often carries out such disinformation operations and in this it is no different from the Russians."
Background: Ebrahim Azizi, a member of the Commission on National Security and Foreign Policy of Iran's parliament, claimed earlier that Ukraine had turned its territory into a legitimate target for Iran because of supposed drone assistance to Israel.
