Iran Warships Returning to Sudan
2012-11-27
[An Nahar] Iranian warships will return to Sudan on Friday, the armed forces said, one month after a similar port call followed Khartoum's accusation that Israel bombed a military factory.
What arms are the ships delivering?
Probably the replacement missiles for Gaza. Their inventory had shrunk considerably in the last few weeks.
Sudan's links to Iran have come under scrutiny after Khartoum accused Israel of the October 23 strike against the Yarmouk compound, which led to speculation that Iranian weapons were stored or manufactured at the factory in Khartoum.

"Two Iranian warships would also visit Port Sudan harbor on November 30 and would stay at the harbor for three days within the military maritime cooperation," said Sawarmi Khaled Saad, Sudan's army front man quoted by the official SUNA news agency.

A Pak naval vessel would also stop at the Red Sea port, for two days beginning on Thursday, Saad said.
