Iran supplies kamikaze drones to Russia, which uses them to attack Ukraine's energy and civilian infrastructure. These terrorist acts against the civilian population are war crimes. And Tehran may find itself in the position of its accomplice.
This statement was made by White House national security adviser Jake Sullivan in comments to reporters. He said:
Their weapons are being used to kill civilians in Ukraine and to plunge cities into cold and darkness, which, from our point of view, puts Iran in a position where it could potentially facilitate large-scale war crimes.

The last large-scale attack by drones was organized on the night of January 2. The target was Kyiv, but the air defense forces worked perfectly. They shot down 39 Shahed UAVs and other targets.
President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky said in an address on January 2 that the occupiers are preparing long-term bombardments by Iranian drones "for attrition." Our defenders are preparing to counter the attacks.
On January 6, the United States imposed sanctions against the manufacturer of kamikaze drones. The list includes executives and board members of Qods Aviation Industries, a key Iranian military manufacturer.
