LONDON (AP) — The United States and Britain have formally accused Iran of supplying short-range ballistic missiles to Russia for its war in Ukraine and will take measures to punish those involved. U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken says Russia “has now received shipments of these ballistic missiles and will likely use them within weeks in Ukraine, against Ukrainians.” Blinken spoke Tuesday alongside British Foreign Secretary David Lammy during a visit to London. Blinken and Lammy are preparing to make a joint visit Wednesday to Ukraine, where they will meet President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and other senior officials to discuss bolstering the country’s defenses.
