Iran has been warned to stop boosting Russia’s military lifeline in Ukraine by
Nato.

Over the last year, the Middle Eastern country has transferred hundreds of
drones – also known as uncrewed aerial vehicles (UAVs) – to Russia to terrorize
civilians in Ukraine.

Allies are seriously concerned by the ‘malicious activities’ within their own
territory and called Tehran to stop its military support to Russia.

‘We call upon Iran to cease its military support to Russia, in particular its
transfer of uncrewed aerial vehicles, which have been used to attack critical
infrastructure, causing widespread civilian casualties,’ the 31-member alliance
said in a final declaration at a summit in Lithuania.




‘We express our serious concern over Iran’s malicious activities in allied
territory.’




Relations between Tehran and Moscow have grown much closer since the start of
the invasion.



Russia wants drones and ballistic missiles, while in exchange Iran wants
Russia’s investment and trade.

In June, the White House warned the two countries’ military partnership appears
to be deepening.

‘We are also concerned that Russia is working with Iran to produce Iranian UAVs
from inside Russia,’ spokesperson John Kirby said in a statement.

Citing newly declassified information, he added that Russia is receiving
materials from Iran required to build a drone manufacturing plant that could
open as early as next year.

‘We are releasing satellite imagery of the planned location of this
manufacturing plant in Russia’s Alabuga Special Economic Zone,’ Kirby said.

The, UK, the US and the European Union in recent months all have issued rules
designed to cut off the flow of drone components to Russia and Iran.

Mexico's military is guaranteeing the safety of travelers to Cancun. 

The commander of the Cancun military garrison, Luis Valentín Iglesias Solórzano,
said in a statement to ensure visitors and residents alike that they can feel
safe.



"I believe that without a doubt the results are occurring from the first minute
that these media are in operation and it will be more noticeable in a decisive
way in the coming days..." he said.

Mexico has invested in securing the region with new equipment and tools to keep
residents and visitors protected.

The Cancun Sun points out that, in Mexico, the military plays a more active role
in protecting national security within the country itself, taking on patrol and
search duties and freeing up law enforcement to focus on community policing. 

Cancun has seen a rise in crime rates during the past three to four years, as
are many nations around the world. The country is working to tamp down incidents
after many high-profile events have made headlines in recent months.
