Iran and Russia ship targets in Caspian

The Ukrainian Security Service confirmed that two Russian cargo ships navigating the Caspian Sea were targeted. These ships were used to transport military shipments from Iran to Russia. Iran announced that one sailor was killed and another wounded in the attack, but did not disclose the name of the damaged vessel. The two ships, which fly the Russian flag and are operated by Russian companies, were last reported sailing in the northern Caspian near Astrakhan, Russia, after departing from the Iranian port of Amirabad in July and May, respectively. It is believed that the ship "Peggy" was headed toward Astrakhan after a voyage from Aktau in Kazakhstan. There is a connection between international sanctions campaigns against Russian ships and the military transport from Iran to Russia, particularly regarding allegations that they are used to transfer weapons and drone components to support Russian operations in Ukraine. So far, Russia has not announced or assessed any clear damages, and uncertainty remains about the identities of the ships and whether either one was actually attacked.
