Is it any surprise, tho? Russia and Iran are "allies"

Well that means hypocrisy is fine.

What number of drones, blowing up your country, are you expected to ignore in order to avoid being hypocritical?

Edit: just in case my comment is not obvious, I am referring to Shahed drones, that are being used by russians against Ukraine and are produced in Iran. In my opinion, Ukraine has every right to be happy about someone cutting off russian supply of those drones.

the russians are building those since like 3 years now, they are not really shahed drones anymore

Using this logic anything can be justified because it's convenient for realpolitik.
