As the US-Israel war with Iran enters its third week, Jerusalem has reportedly approached Ukraine about potential cooperation in countering Iranian drones, even as Tehran issues threats toward Kyiv.
Speaking unofficially at the request of Kyiv Post, a source in President Volodymyr Zelensky’s Office dismissed the Iranian warnings.“We don’t care. Iran is our enemy and an ally of Russia. We won’t even pay attention to that,” the official said.

He confirmed that Ukraine is open to collaboration with Israel.“Iran is the ally of Russia that supplies Shaheds, killing Ukrainians. We’re open to cooperation with Israel,” he said. The source added that Ukraine could share not only its operational experience but also domestically produced drones if necessary. “The president has made the provisions accordingly,” he said.
In return, Kyiv expects greater military support from Jerusalem. “Ukraine needs Patriot missiles and a lot more,” the official said. “I think we’ll reach a deal with Israel.”
Likud member – Iranian regime’s fall will benefit Kyiv
Speaking to Kyiv Post from Jerusalem, Amir Weitmann of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s ruling Likud party said he was satisfied with the progress of Israel’s campaign against Iran. According to Weitmann, many senior figures in the Iranian regime are either “mostly dead or hiding,” while the number of missile and unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) strikes against Israel has significantly declined since the beginning of the conflict.
