German Television: Iran Smuggles Arms on Passenger Flights

ZDF Second German Television reported on Wednesday that Iran is using commercial passenger flights to smuggle arms and explosives to Syria and Lebanon. The report identifies the Iranian Revolutionary Guard as the “mastermind” of the arms smuggling and claims it utilizes flights of two Iranian flag-carriers: Iran Air and Yas Air. Syrian President Bashar Al-Asad and Hizbullah in Lebanon are the recipients of the armament. ZDF reported that European Union intelligence officials are concerned the airliners could be used to deliver weapons for use in terrorist attacks inside of Europe.
