Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who is fighting his third election campaign in less than a year, has traveled to Uganda last week in order to meet with Sudan’s leader, General Abdul Fattah al-Burhan, who expressed his wish to normalize Khartum’s relations with Jerusalem. Sudan, bordering Egypt and Ethiopia – among others - is also important for Israel vis-à-vis Iran’s foreign influence. This is only the latest manifestation of Israel’s regional reach, from the Mediterranean to the Persian Gulf, as well as the Red Sea.
