Hamas and Islamic Jihad have condemned Sudan for agreeing to normalize relations with Israel.
Following the Foreign Minister of Israel's visit to Khartoum, Sudan and Israel committed to completing a normalization agreement in the near future.
The decision by Sudan has been criticised by Hamas and Islamic Jihad leaders as a betrayal of the Palestinian cause.
Hamas and Islamic Jihad have condemned Sudan for agreeing to normalize ties with Israel.
Sudan has been a vocal supporter of the Palestinian cause in the past, and this decision is seen as breaking away from that stance.
Israel's Foreign Minister described the visit to Sudan as a historic diplomatic achievement, and he hinted that more Arab countries could follow Sudan's example in the coming weeks.
The Palestinian leadership has also criticised Sudan, with the Palestinian Authority (PA) issuing a statement to express their rejection of the agreement.
Hamas released a statement condemning the normalization of ties, stating that "it contradicts the general Sudanese stance that is against the normalization of ties with the Israeli occupation state and supports the just Palestinian cause.
" Similarly, Islamic Jihad called Sudan's move "a disgrace for an Arab country of the stature of Sudan.
" However, some Palestinians living in Sudan have welcomed the move, seeing it as a path to more economic opportunities and political stability in the region.
Regardless of the controversy, Sudan appears committed to following through with this decision.
They have reportedly expressed interest in obtaining economic support from Israel, which they believe could help their struggling economy.
While the international community has mostly welcomed the move, critics still question the potential long-term consequences of a closer relationship between Sudan and Israel.
