Egypt: The Iranian missile ship was bound for Sinai or Gaza

An Egyptian security source reported Sunday that the Iranian missile ship apprehended by Israeli commandos in the Red Sea last Wednesday was destined for terrorists in Sinai or the Gaza Strip. It used the same sea route via Sudan which is plied regularly by smugglers and illegal migrant traffickers. DEBKAfile: The Egyptian disclosure runs contrary to the Israeli claim that the captured ship’s captain and crew did not know they were transporting an illicit cargo in violation of international law.
