It has been reported that the Israeli Air Force had conducted an air strike in the Sudan that targeted Iranian weapons bound for Hamas. The air strike apparently took place in January and reportedly killed 39 people and took out around 17 trucks.
Back in January Mossad agents had met with Abdulwahid Elnur, leader of the Sudan Liberation Movement, regarding the Iranian weapons smuggling through the Sudan. Coincidence? I think not. Jerusalem Post
The report quoted unidentified American officials as saying that in January, Israeli warplanes bombed a convoy of trucks carrying arms destined for Hamas through Sudan.
"Israeli intelligence is said to have discovered that weapons were being trucked through Sudan, heading north toward Egypt, whereupon they would cross the Sinai Desert and be smuggled into Hamas-held territory in Gaza," the sources told CBS. "Israeli aircraft carried out the attack".[...]
The attack reportedly killed 39 people and destroyed 17 trucks. Although Sudan has yet to officially blame - or even acknowledge - the strike, Sudanese State Minister for Highways Mabrouk Mubarak Saleem was quoted in the Sudanese Tribune this week as saying that a "major power bombed small trucks carrying arms, burning all of them." He added that the strike killed "Sudanese, Eritreans and Ethiopians, and injured others."
