Sudan says Israel bombed a weapons factory overnight, killing two people.

Sudanese officials originally said the explosion took place inside the facility near a residential area in southern Khartoum. But by afternoon, officials announced that the blast came after four airplanes flew overhead. A resident told CNN he saw two planes and a flash of light coming from them, followed by the sounds of rockets being fired.

They are further away from Israel then Iran. I guess it proves that they are good at taking care of business.

Shabbat Shalom.

FWIW:

...The Yarmouk Complex of military plants near Khartoum, which was bombed five minutes after midnight Wednesday, Oct. 24, by four fighter-bombers, recently went into manufacturing Iranian ballistic surface-to-surface Shehab missiles under license from Tehran...

...Yarmouk’s output was intended to serve as Tehran’s strategic reserve stock in case Iran’s ballistic arsenal was hit by Israeli bombers...

What's the big deal? On radar, it looks just like an Aspirin Factory.

Was it most likely the IAF? Yes, but here are some things to think about. Sudan’s such a bad actor in the region, that most of her neighbors and regional actors don’’t like her either.

This includes the Saudis and the Egyptians, who had the technical means to pull off this raid. And, there’s another elephant in the room we’re not considering?

What if this was a little visit to Sudan by the US? Not likely, we’d have used Tomahawks but with this president as backed into a corner as he is? Could be....
