This story documents firsthand testimonies from individuals within Sudan who are well-informed about the increasing Iranian influence in their country. We refer to them as "Al-Hajj," "The General," and "The Diplomat" to protect their identities and ensure their safety. These individuals unanimously expressed concerns in their testimonies about the dangers of Iranian influence on their country's future stability, the prospects for a ceasefire between the conflicting parties, and the risks this growing influence poses to regional security in the Middle East and Africa, in a way that cannot be ignored.
