Maybe ninjutsu techniques are partly derived from Iranian martial arts?

I saw a Hong Kong martial arts movie last week (or the week before
last) and this ninja woman explains that ninjustu moves are partially
derived from Persian martial arts. So if this is true, the moves made
it all the way from Iran to the Islands of Japan. Go figure.
