Tehran (IP)- The Russian embassy in Tehran called the news about the shipment of Iranian weapons to Russia "fake."

Iran PressIran news: Recently, the London-based Guardian newspaper claimed in a report that anti-tank missiles had been sent from Iraq and the Bavar-373 defense system from Iran to Russia for use in the Ukraine war. 

Following the publication of this report, the Embassy of the Islamic Republic of Iran in England denied the allegations, calling them unprofessional and baseless. 

The Iranian embassy in London tweeted that the article in the Guardian titled "Russia using weapons smuggling by Iran from Iraq against Ukraine" is unrealistic and baseless storytelling and "Trying to link the recent developments in Ukraine to the developments in the Middle East and mentioning the name of the Islamic Republic of Iran is an unprofessional and unacceptable act and a kind of disrespect to the readers of the newspaper." 

On Sunday, the Russian embassy in Tehran issued a statement stating: "The information published in some media outlets about the shipment of Iranian weapons to Russia is false and does not correspond to reality."
