Sudanese political actors aligned with the Peace Government and the Sudan Founding Alliance (TASIS) have intensified their anti-Iran messaging in recent weeks, issuing a series of statements condemning attacks on Gulf Arab states and linking Tehran to wider regional instability.
The latest condemnation came on March 27, when the Peace Government’s Presidential Council expressed solidarity with Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman and Jordan after recent strikes that caused civilian casualties.
The council described the attacks as a violation of sovereignty, a threat to regional stability and a breach of international law.
The March 27 statement built on a broader line already established by TASIS earlier this month. On March 18, The Sudan Times published a TASIS statement condemning Iranian strikes on Saudi Arabia, with the alliance calling the attacks a “grave violation” of sovereignty and warning that the escalation could push the region toward a wider war.
That position had already been foreshadowed on March 8, when TASIS accused General al-Burhan’s army (SAF) and allied Islamist factions of maintaining ties to Iran. In that statement, the alliance framed Tehran not only as a source of regional tension but as part of a wider political and military network operating through Sudanese Islamist actors.
TASIS also reinforced the line on its official Facebook page through multiple press statements referring to the “continued Iranian attacks on the Gulf states” and to “Iranian escalation and targeting of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia,” suggesting the alliance has sought to present a sustained pro-Gulf, anti-Iran position rather than a one-off reaction to a single incident.
The political messaging comes as Sudan Times has also carried reports highlighting alleged Iran links inside Port Sudan. A March 25 report said an Iranian delegation held undisclosed meetings with General al-Burhan’s army (SAF) leadership and Islamist-linked figures in Port Sudan, while another report the same day said concerns over Islamist influence and Tehran ties had complicated Saudi relations with the military leadership.
The statements and related coverage reflect a consistent position by TASIS and the Peace Government, condemning Iranian attacks on Gulf states and expressing support for Gulf security, while also raising concerns over alleged links between Sudan’s military-aligned Islamist factions and Tehran.
