Sudan's Deputy Chairman of the Sovereign Council Mohamed Hamdan 'Hemedti' Dagalo and Russian Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak discussed ways to boost bilateral relations between Khartoum and Moscow.

Sudan welcomed holding the Seventh Joint Ministerial Economic Committee session in Khartoum during the first half of 2022. As well as training, capacity building, and peaceful uses of nuclear energy, it focuses on electricity, gas, and oil.

Sudan, according to Novak, is a Russian partner in Africa.

“We have significant potential for establishing a harmonious dialogue, as well as for expanding economic, trade, and investment cooperation,” he said.

UK premier Keir Starmer told Israeli leader Benjamin Netanyahu on Tuesday that any peace process in the Middle East should pave the way for a Palestinian state, Downing Street said.

The two leaders held a call that focused on the fragile ceasefire between Israel and Hamas in the Gaza Strip, a UK government spokesperson said.

During the conversation, "both agreed that we must work towards a permanent and peaceful solution that guarantees Israel's security and stability", the British readout of the call added.

"The prime minister added that the UK stands ready to do everything it can to support a political process, which should also lead to a viable and sovereign Palestinian state."

Starmer also "reiterated that it was vital to ensure humanitarian aid can now flow uninterrupted into Gaza, to support the Palestinians who desperately need it", the statement added.

Starmer "offered his personal thanks for the work done by the Israeli government to secure the release of the hostages, including British hostage Emily Damari", the statement added.

"To see the pictures of Emily finally back in her family's arms was a wonderful moment but a reminder of the human cost of the conflict," Starmer added, according to the statement.

A truce agreement between Israel and Hamas to end 15 months of war in Gaza came into effect on Sunday.

The first part of the three-phase deal should last six weeks and see 33 hostages returned from Gaza in exchange for around 1,900 Palestinian prisoners.
