KHARTOUM, 17 April, 2021 (TON): The reports that Sudan will send its first delegation to Israel months after a deal for ties between the two countries have been denied by the Sudanese government, said the sources.

Sudan agreed to take steps toward normal ties with Israel last year in a deal brokered by then US President Donald Trump’s administration. This month, Sudan’s Cabinet voted to repeal a 1958 law to boycott Israel.

Earlier, the Sudanese sources had told the media that a Sudanese delegation comprising security and intelligence officials would travel to Israel next week.

Two official Sudanese sources told the media, that an invitation to visit Israel had been accepted, but that plans had later changed. They gave no explanation for the change.

However, Sudan’s security and defense council also denied the news.
