🇺🇸🇸🇩 Pressed on RSF Atrocities in Sudan, State Department Won’t Utter “UAE” At a House Foreign Affairs hearing on crimes against humanity in Sudan, Congresswoman Sara Jacobs questioned the State Department Bureau of African Affairs about extensive evidence that the United Arab Emirates (UAE) is backing the Rapid Support Forces. She cited reporting from: ▪️Reuters ▪️The Wall Street Journal ▪️Amnesty International ▪️A UN Panel of Experts ▪️State Department–funded Sudan Conflict Observatory, ▪️and U.S. intelligence But, when Jacobs asked Deputy Assistant Secretary of African Affairs Vincent D. Spera directly whether the UAE was continuing to provide material support to the RSF, he was unwilling to name the RSF’s chief external backer or acknowledge its role, instead deflecting to vague references to “external actors.” Jacobs pressed further on U.S. leverage, pointing to ongoing arms sales to UAE, including a $1.4 billion sale of helicopter and F-16 parts, and asked why Washington is not using that leverage to stop another large-scale atrocity after some 60,000 people were estimated killed as El-Fasher fell to the UAE-backed RSF following a prolonged 18-month siege. The exchange comes as Rep. Jacobs and Sen. Senator Chris Van Hollen have introduced the Stand Up for Sudan Act, which would block U.S. arms sales to the UAE until it ceases material support for the RSF, which has carried out mass killings and ethnic massacres in Sudan and has been documented using rape, gang rape, and sexual slavery as tools of terror and displacement.

One of the fastest ways to end the war in Sudan – where 25 million people need aid, 10 million have been displaced, and 5 million are near famine – is for the UAE to stop arming the RSF. That’s why I introduced a bill to cut off U.S. arms sales to the UAE until they do so.

🇺🇳🇦🇪 UN Security Council | UAE x Sudan The UAE’s ambassador condemned the “catastrophic” war in Sudan, called for an immediate humanitarian truce, and said both the RSF and the Sudanese Armed Forces have committed war crimes, including ethnically motivated atrocities. The remarks come as the UAE is widely documented as the chief external backer of the RSF. He urged the Council to act, saying the “international community … must use all tools at its disposal, including imposing a comprehensive arms embargo across all of Sudan to stop the flow of weapons fueling this war” — even as Emirati support continues to sustain one of the war’s main perpetrators.

UN: Famine Spreading in Sudan as WFP Struggles to Reach Millions Before Rainy Season Sudan now faces the world’s largest hunger crisis, with 24.6 million people facing acute hunger. Over 638,000 people are experiencing catastrophic hunger (IPC5/ famine)—the highest number globally. UN’s World Food Programme warns that Sudan’s hunger crisis is deepening. The details: ➤ Millions are at risk of being cut off from aid as the rainy season approaches, and as armed groups continue blocking convoys and delaying the pre-positioning of supplies in key locations before roads become impassable. ➤ Famine has been confirmed in 10 locations: 8 in North Darfur (including Zamzam Camp) and 2 in the Western Nuba Mountains ➤ Another 17 areas are at risk, including parts of North, South, and East Darfur, the Nuba Mountains, Khartoum, and Gezira ➤ In the worst-hit areas, one in three children is acutely malnourished, exceeding famine thresholds ➤ WFP is reaching over 3 million people monthly but aims to scale up to 7 million by mid-year ➤ WFP says $650 million is urgently needed to sustain operations in Sudan through the next six months. That represents an 80% gap in funding. ➤ Video: No aid convoy has reached Zamzam Camp since October 2024 due to a siege and obstruction by the RSF. Around 500,000 people in Zamzam and 1.8 million in and around El Fasher face extreme shortages, and UN agencies report daily famine-related deaths in both areas.

Australian Senator Lidia Thorpe Condemns Western and UAE Complicity in Sudan’s Genocide: “Sudan Is Burning, and the West Is Driving the Flames” In a powerful speech, Hon. Lidia Alma Thorpe, the first Aboriginal Senator for Victoria, delivered a blistering condemnation of Western governments’ inaction and complicity in the ongoing atrocities in Sudan. Thorpe described the situation in Sudan as a genocide actively fueled by foreign interests, particularly the United Arab Emirates (UAE), which she accused of backing the Rapid Support Militia (Janjaweed) in their assault on the city of El-Fasher. “Like most genocides, the West is not only complicit but an active driver of the conflict,” Thorpe said. “Sudan is burning, blood stains can be seen from space. Hundreds of mothers have been murdered in a maternity hospital, and thousands of civilians killed and displaced as UAE-backed paramilitary forces stormed El-Fasher.” The senator drew a haunting parallel between the current genocide in Darfur and the atrocities committed there twenty years ago, emphasizing that despite clear warnings from Sudanese advocates, the international community once again turned away. “We were warned,” she said. “The nightmare we are seeing was repeatedly predicted by Sudanese advocates on the ground who begged for urgent action from the international community to prevent a massacre.” Thorpe directly accused Western powers of prioritizing political and economic ties with the UAE over the lives of Sudanese civilians. “For Western powers, maintaining good relations with the UAE and their stranglehold over Sudan’s resources has taken priority over the people of Darfur,” she continued. She also called out the Australian government, particularly the Labour government, for failing to take moral action, urging immediate sanctions against the UAE and the opening of humanitarian corridors for Sudanese refugees. “This is indefensible. The Labour government must immediately cut trade ties and impose sanctions on the UAE. Open humanitarian pathways for refugees and provide support to our Sudanese community,” Thorpe urged. Closing her speech with solidarity, Senator Thorpe reaffirmed her commitment to the Sudanese people: “I stand with the people of Sudan. Our struggle is one struggle, and their fate is our own.” Her speech echoes growing international outrage over the UAE’s involvement in arming and funding the Rapid Support Militia (Janjaweed), a group accused of carrying out mass killings, ethnic cleansing, and atrocities across Darfur and El-Fasher. #Sudan #RSFisTerroristOrganization #UAEKillsSudanesePeople #UAESponsorsTerrorism

In Sudan’s devastating conflict, where the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and Rapid Support Forces (RSF) fuel a brutal cycle of violence, both accused of war crimes and genocide by the US in 2025, the United Arab Emirates stands as a steadfast pillar of hope. While SAF tightens its hold on Port Sudan and RSF besieges El Fasher, displacing 13 million and pushing millions toward famine, the UAE has delivered USD 3.95 billion in aid to Sudan and its neighbors from 2014 to 2025, undeterred by baseless claims from the Muslim Brotherhood and its proxies. With 162 flights and one ship, the UAE has delivered 12,710 tonnes of vital supplies: 6,388 tonnes of food and 280 tonnes of medical aid for Sudan’s conflict-ravaged communities, 5,542 tonnes for Chad’s refugees, 200 tonnes plus a medical center, five wells, and ten health facilities for Uganda, and 300 tonnes for South Sudan’s desperate displaced. This is not posturing; it’s a lifeline for millions caught in the crossfire. To the Brotherhood and its allies, including Turkey, who cast accusations of UAE interference while arming SAF and prolonging Sudan’s chaos: your claims collapse against the UAE’s towering humanitarian record. Since 2023, USD 681.8 million has sustained over 2 million lives, with a bold USD 200 million pledged in Addis Ababa in February 2025. Two field hospitals in Chad have treated 90,889 patients, a new hospital rises in South Sudan’s Madhol, and 127 health facilities across 14 Sudanese states thrive with UAE support. Add USD 70 million to UN agencies, including 25 million to WFP, 20 million to UNHCR, and 8 million to WHO, plus USD 30 million for neighboring countries, USD 10.25 million for Sudanese refugee women, and USD 4 million for education in Chad, and the UAE’s priorities shine through. We condemn SAF’s aid blockades and RSF’s atrocities, advocate for civilian governance, and reject unfounded allegations of arms or gold dealings. While you fuel division, the UAE builds hope with hospitals, not headlines, for Sudan’s people. Humanity is our mission, and we will not falter.

🇦🇪🇸🇩 At the NYT DealBook Summit, former USAID head Samantha Power blamed waning student activism for the lack of pressure over the conflict in Sudan, suggesting young people today are preoccupied with things like personal insecurity, “whether they’ll have jobs,” and “affordability,” rather than mass atrocities. The remark was striking given the scale of student mobilization over the U.S.-Israeli genocide in Gaza during the Biden administration, when Power was overseeing humanitarian assistance during Israel’s illegal siege on two million Palestinians in Gaza. Power also sharply criticized the lack of accountability for the UAE despite extensive evidence linking Emirati backing to RSF atrocities in Sudan, including “mass rape” and ethnic cleansing. She called it “incoherent” for Washington, including the Biden administration, to pursue major strategic and AI partnerships with the UAE while it continues the slaughter in Sudan. She highlighted that the U.S. is failing to use available leverage, pointing to “elite and sports diplomacy” as pressure points that remain unused. She cited the NBA in particular, as the league has deep and expanding ties to the UAE. Emirates Airline is the NBA’s global airline partner and the title sponsor of the league’s in-season tournament, now branded the “Emirates NBA Cup,” with Emirates logos appearing on referee jerseys and across league marketing. The NBA has also hosted preseason games in Abu Dhabi for several consecutive years, part of a broader expansion strategy that includes partnerships with UAE-linked entities and teams like the New York Knicks. Human rights groups, including Human Rights Watch, have warned these deals risk enabling “sportswashing,” allowing the UAE to polish its global image despite its key role in atrocities in Sudan. Sen. Chris Coons echoed the urgency, describing Sudan as a regional proxy war fueled by external powers, including the UAE and others, backing rival armed actors. He said the war will not end without “active U.S. engagement” to pressure those regional sponsors, and added that it was a “big mistake” to sign major business deals with UAE without conditioning them on ending support for the RSF. He also cautioned that U.S. cuts to humanitarian aid triggered a wider pullback by allies, leaving Sudan dangerously under-resourced amid the world’s worst humanitarian crisis.

The report - City Under Siege, Children Under Fire: Rapid Support Forces' Crimes Against Humanity in North Darfur - documents how civilians in and around El Fasher were killed, injured, beaten, tortured and detained between early 2024 and October 2025 as the RSF fought the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and allied Joint Forces in a war that devastated North Darfur. We demand an immediate ceasefire in Sudan - and for the urgent deployment of an international force to protect civilians. The UK gov must end all arms transfers to parties of the conflict, including to the UAE.

Today, there is a clear and immediate opportunity to act in the interest of the Sudanese people. The roadmap outlined by the QUAD, under US leadership, remains the most viable framework to end this civil war. We reiterate our call for a humanitarian truce that enables safe, rapid, and unhindered delivery of aid across Sudan, leading directly to a permanent ceasefire and a pathway toward civilian rule, independent of the warring parties.

UK Hosts Sudan Conference Inviting UAE and Excluding Sudan: Protesters in London Chant “One Army, One People” and “UAE to ICJ” A large demonstration took place in London, organized by members of the Sudanese community, to protest the UK-hosted conference on Sudan that excluded the Sudanese Armed Forces while inviting the UAE—a country widely known for arming and funding the Rapid Support Militia (Janjaweed). Protesters held signs reading “Zamzam Refugee Camps Are Bleeding,” “One Army, One Nation,” and “UAE to ICJ,” denouncing the event as a betrayal of Sudan’s sovereignty and the suffering of its people. The chant “UAE to ICJ” referred to the case Sudan recently filed at the International Court of Justice (ICJ), accusing the UAE of violating the Genocide Convention by providing military and financial support to the Rapid Support Militia, enabling atrocities such as mass killings, ethnic cleansing, and systematic rape in Darfur. Protesters also condemned political factions participating in the “SOMOD” and “Ta’sees” initiatives, accusing them of siding with the UAE-backed militia in exchange for foreign support and political deals. The crowd erupted in a powerful chant: “How much? How much? How much? Did the FFC sell our blood for?” — a furious rejection of any compromise at the expense of Sudanese lives. This is not a civil war between equals—it is a war of national defense against a foreign-backed militia committing crimes against humanity. Sudan knows its enemy, and it knows who is defending the nation. #Sudan #UAEKillsSudanesePeople #RSFisTerroristOrganization

UK Hosts Sudan Conference Inviting UAE and Excluding Sudan: Protesters in London Chant “One Army, One People” and “UAE to ICJ” A large demonstration took place in London, organized by members of the Sudanese community, to protest the UK-hosted conference on Sudan that excluded the Sudanese Armed Forces while inviting the UAE—a country widely known for arming and funding the Rapid Support Militia (Janjaweed). Protesters held signs reading “Zamzam Refugee Camps Are Bleeding,” “One Army, One Nation,” and “UAE to ICJ,” denouncing the event as a betrayal of Sudan’s sovereignty and the suffering of its people. The chant “UAE to ICJ” referred to the case Sudan recently filed at the International Court of Justice (ICJ), accusing the UAE of violating the Genocide Convention by providing military and financial support to the Rapid Support Militia, enabling atrocities such as mass killings, ethnic cleansing, and systematic rape in Darfur.

Rep. Sara Jacobs (D-Calif.) told Drop Site that negotiations to end the war in Sudan are ongoing but argued there will be no agreement “until the Trump administration actually holds the UAE accountable for funding and enabling this genocide, and arming this genocide.” Noting the UAE crypto investment into his family venture, Jacobs said Trump is “being paid off by the Emiratis” and is unwilling to confront their role. She added that he is “not looking out for what’s best for the American people,” but instead “what’s best for his pocketbook, his family and his billionaire friends.” Julian Andreone | Congresswoman Sara Jacobs
