Israel intends to send its first official delegation to Sudan, next Sunday, to promote the process of normalizing relations, which the two sides announced on October 23 that they are in the process of, according to Reuters quoted a source familiar with the delegation's initial plans.

The source, who requested anonymity or nationality, spoke to Reuters on Tuesday.

In contrast, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office had no immediate comment, nor did Sudanese officials have a comment.

It is noteworthy that on October 23, the White House announced that President Donald Trump had signed a decree removing Sudan from the US list of states sponsoring terrorism, and that Khartoum and Tel Aviv had agreed - with American mediation - to normalize relations between them.

A joint American-Sudanese-Israeli statement described the normalization agreement between Sudan and Israel as historic, and considered it a testament to "the bold approach of the four leaders (US President Donald Trump, President of the Sudanese Sovereignty Council Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, Prime Minister Abdullah Hamdok, and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu)."
