Sudan stresses US violations of its territories

Sudan has reiterated that the US military attack against al-Shifaa medicinal factory in Khartoum in August 1998 constitutes a flagrant violation of Sudan's sovereignty and of all international norms and charters.

In a statement released on Thursday on the occasion of the first anniversary of the US attack against the medicinal factory, the Sudanese government refuted the US administration's claims that the factory was producing chemical weapons components and once again called on the UN Security Council to shoulder its responsibilities by sending a fact-finding commission about the factory.

The statement also called on the US administration to bear the consequences of the results of such a comission.
