Report names Netanyahu, Trump aides who visited Sudan to reach deal on ties
Following reports that Israeli and Sudanese officials have reached a final agreement on forging ties that will be publicly announced soon, the Walla news site names Israeli and American officials who participated in yesterday’s visit to Khartoum.
The report cited officials with knowledge of the details as saying that among the officials were Prime Minister’s Office acting director-general Ronen Peretz and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s unnamed special envoy to the Arab world, nicknamed “Maoz.”
Also on the rare direct flight from Tel Aviv to Khartoum were the US National Security Council Senior Director for the Middle East and North Africa, Miguel Correa, and Aryeh Lightstone, a senior adviser to US Ambassador to Israel David Friedman.
