Iran Exploiting Upheaval in Egypt to Send Weapons
(Ynet News) Ron Ben-Yishai - The Victoria docked in Ashdod on Wednesday. Alongside the weapons was a Persian-language manual with an Iranian Revolutionary Guards logo. It is estimated that the Iranian authorities are taking advantage of the weakening of Egypt's security apparatuses to send weapons and terrorists into Sinai unchecked. Israel considers efforts to smuggle anti-ship missiles to Gaza a strategic threat. The weapons directly threaten any vessel docking in Ashkelon and the Yam Thetis oil rig, an important source of gas for Israel.
