Iran 'sends hundreds of missiles to Russia' in 'dramatic escalation'
Saturday, 7 September 2024 () Iran is believed to have sent more than 200 ballistic missiles to Russia - a move security chiefs say would be a "dramatic escalation" of its defence partnership with Moscow.
In a surprising move, Russian President Vladimir Putin thanked Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman for his critical role in orchestrating a historic U.S.-Russia prisoner swap. This unprecedented deal saw American journalist Evan Gershkovich and U.S. Marine Paul Whelan return home, while high-profile Russian detainees, including hackers and assassins, were handed back to Moscow. The swap, which involved 24 detainees, unfolded after nearly a year of secret negotiations, with Turkey's President Erdogan playing a pivotal role as mediator. Watch now to discover the inside details of this complex geopolitical exchange and the players involved!
