Zelensky offers help to stop Iranian drones In return for truce

Volodymyr Zelensky proposed sending Ukraine's experts in intercepting Iranian drones to the Middle East, contingent upon leaders there persuading Vladimir Putin to agree to a truce in the war on Ukraine.

He emphasized Ukraine's "unique expertise in intercepting drones" developed over four years of conflict. Zelensky suggested that Middle Eastern leaders use their connections with Russia to negotiate a ceasefire.

He offered to send drone interceptor operators to protect civilians in the region if a truce is established. This suggestion comes as Middle Eastern cities face threats from Iranian drone attacks.

Zelensky highlighted the strong ties between Gulf states and Russia, expressing hope for collaboration.
