Sudan chemical weapons allegations highlight Israel’s involvement in war Submitted by Oscar Rickett on Thu, 09/10/2026 - 14:28 Secret dossier detailing use of chlorine compiled by Israeli intelligence, sources tell MEE Armed defectors from the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) arrive in a vehicle as they are believed to be surrendering to the Sudanese military, in the west of Omdurman on 19 August 2026 (AFP) Off Over the weekend, the New York Times and Washington Post both reported on a “dossier of evidence” that detailed the alleged use of chemical weapons by the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF). The dossier, “shared by a Middle Eastern intelligence agency”, included images, documents and intercepted messages between Sudanese military officers that described how the army “developed and produced chemical weapons over six months in 2024”. Multiple Sudanese and US sources have told Middle East Eye that the “Middle Eastern intelligence agency” is Israeli , and that the dossier it shared with the media was very similar to one Israel handed to the US government before it sanctioned Abdel Fattah al-Burhan , leader of the SAF, in January 2025.  The dossier’s evidence seems to show that a secretive unit of the SAF, which has been at war with the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) since April 2023, produced chlorine bombs to use against its enemy.

Romania will not send combat troops or other military personnel to Ukraine, the Presidential Administration said in response to claims circulating online.
