WikiLeaks Saudi cable says Iran shipped nuclear equipment to Sudan

Tue Jun 23, 2015

Saudi diplomats in Khartoum believed Iran shipped advanced nuclear equipment including centrifuges to Sudan in 2012, according to a document leaked last week that WikiLeaks says is a cable from the embassy. "The embassy's sources advised that Iranian containers arrived this week at Khartoum airport containing sensitive technical equipment in the form of fast centrifuges for enriching uranium, and a second shipment is expected to arrive this week," the document, dated February 2012 and marked 'very secret', read.

A Sudanese munitions factory was destroyed in a mysterious explosion in October 2012, eight months after the date on the cable, which the Sudanese government blamed on an Israeli air raid. There were no indications that the factory had a nuclear dimension.

Israeli warplanes didn't travel 2,360 miles round-trip in 2012 to destroy an artillery factory. Unofficial sources said at the time that the target housed Iranian Scud missiles bound for Hamas in Gaza. Perhaps it also contained other goodies from Tehran and Riyadh tipped off Tel Aviv.
 
What the hell would anybody want to put extremely expensive anything into Sudan for?

What would they then do with it?
