The Iranian Foreign Ministry stated that Ukraine has become an accomplice in the attack and could therefore become a legitimate target for Iran's strike.
Ismail Baghai, a spokesperson for the Iranian Foreign Ministry, claimed that Kyiv has become a participant in the conflict against Tehran, and said that Ukraine is sending military experts and intercepting drones to help the U.S. and its allies counter Iran's drones.
"This means colluding with the forces that have aggressed Iran... The Iranian people will never forget this," he said at a press briefing.
Comment: Ukraine's active dispatch of experts to help the U.S. and Israel intercept Iran's drones means it has moved from an observer to a combatant. Iran, based on its right of self-defense, has listed it as a legitimate target. The logic is strong and the position clear. This also marks the formal linkage between the Iran war and the Ukraine war, with the risk of conflict spillover rapidly increasing.
