According to the interlocutor of journalists, two cargo vessels of Musa Jalil and Begey came under the Russian flag on January 10 and 12 from the port of Amirarabad in Iran and headed in the Russian Federation through the Caspian Sea. For a few days the ships stopped off the coast of Turkmenistan, but it is unclear why. On January 27, the ships entered the port in the Russian city of Astrakhan, where they stayed for several days, and then left it on February 3.
There were about 200 weapons transport containers on board. Ships transported a large number of ammunition for RSSUs, mortars and machine guns, as well as cartridges of 5. 56 mm, 7. 62 mm, 9 mm, 12. 7 mm and 14. 5 mm for Russian troops. In addition, about 10 thousand bulletproof vests and helmets were delivered to the Russian Federation. According to the source, the Russian Federation paid for military supply in cash.

Sky News Data and Forensics Department confirmed information about the movement of ships, although the dates were slightly different. At the same time, the media could not independently check the data on the volume of weapons provided. " One expert warned that volumes seem larger, ”the journalists added.
