Russian experts working in Sudan train the Sudanese law enforcement servicemen under existing cooperation contracts, the official added.
"The media reports in the UK's Times and similar outlets on Russian mercenaries are outright fakes seeking to demonize our country and its foreign policies", Tomsky said.
Previously, The Times claimed, citing the Sudanese opposition, that Russian mercenaries from the private military company Wagner Group had been spotted patrolling the anti-government protests in Khartoum.
