Tens of thousands of artefacts have been looted from a Sudanese museum regarded as one of the most important in Africa, an official at the museum has said.

The official, who asked to remain anonymous, did not attribute blame for the looting. Earlier this month, Sudan’s national broadcaster reported that the museum had been targeted by “a large-scale looting and smuggling operation”.

For almost a year, Israel's army, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), has been fighting Hamas and other militant organizations there, which are classified as terrorist organizations by Germany, the European Union, the United States and other governments. The trigger was an unprecedented terrorist attack on Israel last October 7, when, according to Israeli sources, Islamist militias killed more than 1,200 people and took 251 hostages to Gaza.
