Sudan becomes third Arab state to recognise Israel, Trump confirms

President Donald Trump has announced that Sudan will start to normalise ties with Israel, making it the third Arab state to do so as part of US-brokered deals in the run-up to Election Day.
The deal, which would deepen Sudan’s engagement with the West, follows President Trump’s conditional agreement this week to remove the North African nation from the list of state sponsors of terrorism if it pays compensation to American victims of terror attacks.
