Intelligence information obtained by "Iran International" revealed that the Iranian Revolutionary Guard sent a weapons shipment to Sudan on March 17th via a cargo plane belonging to "Fars Air Qeshm," a company under international sanctions. The plane, a Boeing 747 with the registration code "EP-FAB," took off from Tehran to Port Sudan, delivering the shipment secretly, suspected to include drones like "Muhajer 6" and "Ababil 3," along with anti-tank missiles. Despite attempts to conceal the flight path by disabling air tracking systems, data from "Flight Radar 24" showed the plane made a round trip to Port Sudan on the same day. European intelligence sources confirmed that these weapons are intended for the Sudanese army to use against the "Rapid Support Forces" in the ongoing internal conflict. This is not the first time this plane has been used for similar operations, having been involved in arms transport missions in the past year. Satellite images and reports have shown Iranian drones used in the Sudanese civil war, alongside the presence of "Saeqeh 2" missiles in Sudanese army camps. This move is part of Iran's efforts to strengthen its military influence in the Red Sea region, with diplomatic and military actions indicating broader objectives beyond military support, potentially involving access to uranium reserves in Sudan to support its nuclear program, as analyzed by the "Iranian Diplomat" website close to Tehran. The government of Port Sudan, aligned with General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, restored relations with Iran in late 2023 amid escalating conflict in Gaza, paving the way for the return of Iranian arms shipments. These developments coincided with Iranian offers to provide the Sudanese government with warships in exchange for establishing naval bases, offers officially rejected but not halting the flow of military shipments.
