On the 25th local time, Iran's Ministry of Foreign Affairs condemned Ukraine's military attack on an Iranian merchant ship in the Caspian Sea, resulting in the death of one sailor and the injury of another. Iranian Foreign Minister Alagzi said on the 26th that the Ukrainian attack on Iranian merchant ships “blatantly violates the Charter of the United Nations” and accuses it of being “carried out under the direction of Israel” with the aim of “dragging Europe into its war.” Analysts believe that the Ukrainian side's move is aimed at preventing Iran from supplying military materials such as drones to Russia and showing goodwill to the US. This attack shows the escalation of tension between Ukraine and Iran, and the further mutual influence of the US-Iran war and Russian-Ukrainian conflict, but it is unlikely that Ukraine and Iran will move towards full-scale confrontation.
