Mystery surrounds intercepted Iranian missile shipment | Fox News:

"Questions continue to swirl around a shipment of Iranian missiles the Israeli navy intercepted near Sudan, with experts saying the weapons' true destination might reveal a hidden agenda in Tehran.

A tricky trail of paperwork and the circuitous route of the Panama-flagged ship found to be carrying lethal M-302 missiles from Iran showed a major effort to hide the cargo and the parties involved. The Israeli Defense Forces say the weapons aboard the ship, now being towed to the southern Israeli port of Eilat on the Red Sea, were bound for the terrorist enclave of Gaza via the Sinai Peninsula.

“We are absolutely certain they [the missiles] were headed to Gaza,” Israel Defense Forces spokesman Peter Lerner told FoxNews.com. “The intelligence on this mission has been gathered over months. We know that it was supposed to probably go by land from Port Sudan via the Sinai Peninsula and into Gaza.""
