Russia Delivers 13 Tons of Medical Aid to Iran via Azerbaijan
On the orders of President Vladimir Putin, Russia’s Emergency Situations Ministry has dispatched 13 tons of humanitarian aid to Iran. The shipment, composed mainly of medicines, was flown to Azerbaijan for handover to Iranian authorities. The delivery marks Russia as the first country to send official relief to Iran amid recent regional tensions. These flared after large-scale strikes by the United States and Israel, which prompted Iran to respond with drone and missile attacks on Israel and Gulf states hosting US forces. The aid operation was confirmed in a statement carried by a major news agency, highlighting Moscow’s role in providing medical support to its regional partner.
