Israel’s first delegation in Sudan to establish ties

Israel has dispatched its first delegation
to Sudan, after the countries announced a US-brokered
agreement on October 23 to take steps towards establishing ties.

Israel’s Army Radio, operated by the Israeli Army, announced the delegation’s Sudan visit on Monday, but Israeli and Sudanese officials had no immediate comment.

Speaking last week, Israeli Intelligence Minister Eli Cohen
said the initial delegation to Sudan would be small and tasked
with security matters.

A larger delegation would follow to
address possible economic cooperation with Khartoum, he told
Ynet TV.

On Monday, an Israeli official said Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had visited Saudi Arabia in a controversial move that is likely to spark fury.

Riyadh denied such a meeting took place.
