Iran's alleged supply of ballistic missiles to Russia is worrying, says military analyst Sean Bell.
Bell says Russia "tends to use older weapons" but unlike Ukraine "has the volume."
"Both sides are fighting for weapons, and at the moment Russia has increased its domestic production, but it desperately needs weapons from Iran and North Korea," he says.
The delivery is said to contain short-range ballistic missiles.
"They will give Russia more missile volume, but it also means that Russia's limited supply of its Iskander missiles can now be focused on long-range targets - that's very worrying," he says.
According to him, Russian soldiers have been in Iran training in recent weeks.
Speaking on the UK's announcement yesterday that it will supply Ukraine with more than 650 missiles, the military expert says the challenge will be the need to be careful about providing the war-torn country with the latest weapons in case they fall into the hands of Russia.
He adds: "Ukraine desperately needs that technology and volume, so that's the big challenge right now." /Sky News
