Sudan’s ruler, General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, met with Israeli Foreign Minister Eli Cohen in Khartoum earlier today, the first official visit to the country by an Israeli diplomat, the Sudanese authorities announce.

Cohen is slated to land back in Israel this evening and hold a press conference about the trip, which his office called a “historic diplomatic visit.”
