Satellite imagery has captured a Russian-flagged cargo ship, 'Port Olya 3,' suspected of transporting ballistic missiles from Iran docked at a port in Russia a week ago. The vessel arrived at Russia's Port Olya on September 4, 2024, after leaving Iran's Amirabad port six days earlier. Ukrainian sources claim the vessel shipped around 220 short-range ballistic missiles via the Caspian Sea to Russia, intended for use in the war in Ukraine. This development comes just a day after the US stated its belief that the Russian military has received shipments of Iranian Fatah-360 ballistic missiles.
