Iran may have gifted thousands of assault rifles to Ukraine: report
Fox News
The U.S. may transfer thousands of assault rifles to Ukraine after the U.S. Navy confiscated the weapons and ammunition from Iranian smugglers on their way to Yemen.
"The war in Ukraine is consuming an enormous amount of munitions and depleting allied stockpiles," NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg said Monday. "The current rate of Ukraine’s ammunition expenditure is many times higher than our current rate of production. This puts our defense industries under strain."

The U.S. and allied navies have seized the weapons in a series of operations in the Gulf of Oman, disrupting Iranian efforts to smuggle weapons to Houthi rebels in Yemen.
