Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has said that Iran is already participating in the war against Ukraine by supplying weapons to Russia, warning that vigilance is essential against any potential new threats.
In an interview, Zelensky was asked whether Iran could launch a direct attack on Ukraine following the recent attack involving an Iranian aircraft.
Responding to the question, he said Ukraine must remain cautious and do everything possible to prevent the opening of another front in the conflict.
