The US agrees with France and the UK that the supply of these drones violates UN Security Council Resolution 2231, the US State Department said.
This resolution, linked to the Iranian nuclear deal, prohibits the transfer of certain military technologies by Iran.
Ukraine has identified the drones (UAVs) as Iranian Shahed-136 drones.
