Khartoum:
Two Iranian warships have arrived in Sudan carrying a message of
support and friendship, days after Sudan accused Israel of an air
strike on an arms factory in Khartoum.
The vessels docked in Port of Sudan on the Red Sea Monday and are
expected to stay there until Thursday.
"The visit of these ships to Port Sudan and their presence in
regional waters exemplifies serious support of political and
diplomatic ties between the two countries," Sudanese army
spokesperson Savarmi Khaled Saad said.
The official made no connection between the visit of the Iranian
task force and the alleged Israeli air raid on the Yarmouk arms
factory in the south of Khartoum last week, which killed at least
two people.
Unconfirmed media reports over the weekend suggested that the
plant produced weapons for Iran, Syria, and radical Islamist
groups Hamas and Hezbollah. The claim was dismissed categorically
by Sudanese authorities Monday.
Israel also suspects Sudan of smuggling weapons to Gaza strip,
which has been under control of Hamas since 2007, through Egypt.
