Sudan war: UAE denies supporting RSF and Colombian recruits

Article excerpt

Human rights organizations accuse the United Arab Emirates of arming and funding the RSF, a militia fighting Sudan's government forces in a conflict that has killed tens of thousands and displaced millions. The UAE denies the allegations, though the RSF has recently lost high-profile commanders to defections to the opposing Sudanese Armed Forces. Meanwhile, Sudan's civilian population endures widespread hunger, disease, and violence with little international intervention to stop the bloodshed.
