Ireland Investigates Appearance of Their Details into Shahed Drones

Ireland has launched an investigation into parts of their production getting into Iranian kamikaze drones, although it does not believe any companies violated sanctions.

"We are aware of the downing of this drone. We are conducting an appropriate investigation. We do not believe that any Irish companies may have violated sanctions," Interfax Ukraine cites Prime Minister of Ireland Leo Varadkar during a press conference in Kyiv

The head of the Irish government suggests that the sanctions could have been violated by "some third parties".

On 18 July, the President's Office clearly demonstrated that the drones that Russia used to attack Mykolaiv at night contained Western-made parts.

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy called on the world to reduce trade with Russia to the extent that the terrorist country cannot use any component to create weapons that attack Ukraine.
