PanARMENIAN.Net – The United States closed its embassy in the Sudanese
capital of Khartoum on Wednesday, Oct 24 prior to an airstrike that
hit a weapons plant in the country, The Jerusalem Post reports citing
pan-Arab Al-Hayat newspaper.

According to Al-Hayat, there was speculation in Khartoum that the
closing of the U.S. embassy indicated the U.S. had prior knowledge
of the attack. The airstrike caused a huge explosion and fire at an
arms factory that killed two people.

Sudan called on the UN Security Council to condemn Israel after it
accused the Jewish State of carrying out the strike.
