"Khartoum denies any link for Sudan's military manufacturing with any foreign party," Sudanese Foreign Ministry Spokesman Al-Obaid Ahmed Mirrawih said in a statement on Monday.
On October 24, Sudanese Minister of Information Ahmed Belal Osman said that four Israeli military planes had attacked the Yarmouk Complex in Khartoum earlier in the day, killing at least two people.
Mirrawih once again condemned the Zionist entity over the attack, saying that the Zionist regime is desperately trying to spread misleading information to justify its attack, including claims about links between the Yarmouk weapon factory and Iran, Syria, the Palestinian resistance movement Hamas and the Lebanese resistance movement Hezbollah, Press TV said.
"Iran does not need weapons produced in Sudan, either for itself or for its allies," the Sudanese official added.
Sudan has called on the United Nations Security Council to condemn the Israeli regime for violating the African country’s sovereignty.
On Tuesday, Iran’s Foreign Ministry Spokesman Ramin Mehmanparast also rejected rumors about a link between Iran and the Yarmouk Complex. Mehmanparast said Tel Aviv usually fabricates such excuses to cover up the crimes it commits.

In line with the Islamic Republic of Iran’s strategy of expanding its naval
presence in international waters, Iran Navy’s 22nd fleet of warships has called
at a Sudanese northeastern port in the Red Sea. The fleet which comprises Kharg helicopter carrier and Admiral Naqdi destroyer arrived at the Sudanese port on Monday. The Navy’s 22nd fleet was dispatched to the coasts of Djibouti and Bab el-Mandeb Strait in late September to convey Iran’s message of peace to the regional countries and maintain the security of shipping corridors against maritime terrorism. The Iranian commanders of the fleet are scheduled to meet with Sudanese Navy commanders during their stay in the North African country. Iran's Navy has been multiplying its naval presence in the international waters since last year, deploying vessels to the Indian Ocean and dispatching, in February 2011, two ships via the Suez Canal to the Mediterranean Sea for the first time. In addition, in line with the international efforts to combat piracy, the Iranian Navy has been conducting anti-piracy patrols in the Gulf of Aden since November 2008 to safeguard the vessels involved in maritime trade, especially the ships and oil tankers owned or leased by Iran. |
