Ukraine will help in dealing with Iranian drones

Ukraine wants advanced missile in return
In return for this cooperation, Ukraine is demanding high-tech air defense missiles from the Gulf countries. Ukraine needs these missiles to stop Russia’s continuous attacks.
Ukraine can also play a role in Hormuz

Meanwhile, many countries in Europe have decided to take strict action against Russia’s shadow fleet. These are old oil tankers, from which Russia sells oil by dodging the sanctions and runs the war with the same money. British Prime Minister Kier Starmer has said that now more strict action will be taken against these ships and they will be stopped or checked if necessary.
