According to the report, which is based on a source in a private company, the Revolutionary Guards set up a dummy container terminal near the airport.
The names of the UN and the international shipping company DHL were written on the containers.
The report also states that the Iranians are using the new terminal as a temporary distribution center where weapons, mainly missiles and missile parts, are being held before they are distributed to various sites throughout Syria.
According to the source, the container complex is located only 200 meters from the airport area, which was previously attacked by Israel after being used by the Iranian Revolutionary Guards to arm the pro-Iranian militias and Hezbollah members.
The Revolutionary Guards, according to the report, are guarding the new facility, to which local workers are prevented from approaching.
The complex has more than 25 containers, which were previously used by the UN.
