Sadr, a former adviser to ex-President Khatami, said Israel’s precise attacks on all Iranian air defense positions suggested Moscow’s “bias in favor of Israel” and called Iran’s strategic agreements with Russia “nonsense.” He noted Russia sold S-400 systems to Turkey but refused Iran advanced fighter jets.
