''Suez Canal chairman: US requested to strike Iranian weapons ship''

From Egypt Independent


''The Egyptian Navy refused a US request to strike an Iranian ship loaded with weapons that was on its way to Syria through the Suez Canal, Lieutenant General Mohab Mamish, Suez Canal Authority chairman, said Saturday.
In an interview with private satellite Channel Al-Hayat, Mamish also confirmed that the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces had objected to the presence of US ships at the southern entrance of the Suez Canal during the 25 January revolution.''
