(CNN) -- Two Iranian warships will cross the Suez Canal on Tuesday, four days after Egypt's post-Hosni Mubarak government gave the green light to the passage, Egyptian state-run news website EgyNews reported Monday.
They are expected to be the first such ships to sail through the Suez since the Islamic republic's 1979 revolution.
The move puts Egypt's new military regime in a prickly position with its Israeli neighbor. CNN
