"During the visit, the delegation of the Russian Defense Ministry will hold a number of talks with the military leadership of the republic," the statement read.

Throughout the visit, the delegation will aim to strengthen Russian-Iranian military ties and will mark yet another stage in advancing cooperation between the two countries, the ministry said.

A military ceremony was held to welcome Shoigu and the delegation he leads, where both the Iranian and Russian flags were raised.

Earlier in August, the Commander of the Ground Force of the Iranian Army Brigadier General Kioumars Heidari, made a multi-day visit to Russia where he emphasized that Iran and Russia will expand their cooperation on the military level.

The Commander called his visits to Moscow "timely and fruitful," detailing positive agreements during a meeting with Oleg Salyukov, the Commander-in-Chief of the Russian Army's Ground Forces.

Heidari celebrated Iran's presence along with 70 other nations at Russia's Army-2023 International Military-Technical Forum, recalling that Iran's various land, sea, aerospace, missile, and electronic warfare capabilities astounded visitors and participants.

It is worth noting that the visit comes as the Azeri Defense Ministry announces an "anti-terrorist operation" in Nagorno-Karabakh, almost three years after it went to war over the highly disputed mountainous region in close proximity to both Iran and Russia.
