Ukraine's Ambassador to Israel, Yevgen Kornitschuk, confirmed that Ukraine attacked an Iranian ship in the Caspian Sea. He said:

"The ship we attacked in the Caspian Sea contained components for drones and missiles that were on their way to Iran, not civilian cargo as Iran claimed. This is not the first time we have hit such military targets, and of course, we can expect to hit them again. This is a legitimate military target in our view."
