There is a strange relationship between Israel, Cyprus, Greece and the current coup in Sudan.

According to a report by Lighthouse reports and Inside Story, an 8-seat Cessna jet that flew from Athens and landed in the Sudanese capital a year ago belonged to the (in)famous ex-mossad agent Tal Dillian. 

Since leaving the Israeli army's elite intelligence division of Unit 81, which he commanded, Dilian has specialized in surveillance tools. Based in Cyprus, he first created an innovative phone surveillance company called Circles, which he sold in 2014. He also worked with a leader of the Israeli community in Cyprus, Abraham Shahak Avni, owner of Pegasus Flight Centre.

Dillian and Avni agreed to build an information alliance that not only fully met, but exceeded government intelligence standards. In preparation for this, Dilian bought Cytrox, a startup from Hungary and North Macedonia, which developed phone hacking software called Predator. He brokered a marketing deal with French spy company Nexa and invested in other companies in the cyber intelligence sector. By combining the capabilities of different companies under one roof, Dilian hoped to compete with the biggest players in the mercenary spyware market - particularly the Israeli group NSO, now known for its Pegasus hacker software. The new alliance was to be called Intellexa.

Now, where does Sudan add up to this? Well, the passengers of the Cessna jet met with high-ranking officials of the Sudanese army and particularly Hemedti, leader of the RSF, second in power and richest man in Sudan. 

According to three independent sources cited by the Israeli newspaper, the cargo was advanced surveillance technology, manufactured in the European Union, with the potential to upset the balance of power in Sudan thanks to its ability to turn smartphones into audiovisual informants for their owners. 

When news of its arrival reached Hemedti's opponents, the equipment was considered so dangerous that an RSF commander who spoke on condition of anonymity said it was smuggled from Khartoum to the militia stronghold in Darfur to prevent its seizure by the military.

This particular surveillance software is known as "Predator". The very same software caused chaos in the Greek political scene after two cellphones were found to be infected by it: the first belonged to the journalist Thanasis Koukakis and the latter to Nikos Androulakis, the leader of PASOK, the Greek social democratic party. However, in the case of Sudan the danger was even greater: the country was unstable and authority was shared between the government and the RSF, something that both parties didn't like but had to tolerate. 

The predator software would shift the balance towards the RSF, while threatening to cut the very thin rope that held the country from falling into the pit of civil war.

The original report by the forementioned journalists was published 5 months ago and as we can see, a few days ago it came into being.
