Iran–Sudan relations refers to diplomatic, economic and military relations between Sudan and Iran. For nearly three decades, Iran and Sudan enjoyed a close relationship.
Sudan and Iran severed diplomatic ties in the 2010s due to their opposing sides in the Iran–Saudi Arabia proxy conflict, but restored them as Iran supported Sudanese armed forces in the civil war. In July 2024, Tehran and Khartoum have reestablished diplomatic ties after seven years. Sudan received Iran's new ambassador and designated its own envoy to Tehran. This renewal initiates a new chapter in their relations, highlighted by Sudan's recent visit to Iran to acquire drones.
