Sudan has temporarily suspended imports of fruit, vegetables, and fish from Egypt from Sept. 20 on safety grounds, the Sudanese trade ministry said.
This action comes less than a week after Russia announced it would suspend fruit and vegetable imports from Egypt.
“Importing fruit, vegetable, and fish from Egypt is temporarily suspended until laboratory tests are complete to guarantee safety,” Sudanese state news agency SUNA quoted a trade ministry statement as saying late on Tuesday.
