Sudan Accuses UAE of Complicity in Genocide at UN Court

Sudan files case at the International Court of Justice, alleging the UAE's support for paramilitary forces has fueled atrocities in West Darfur.

  • Sudan has filed a case against the United Arab Emirates at the International Court of Justice, accusing it of violating the UN Genocide Convention.
  • The allegations center on the UAE's alleged financial, political, and military support for the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), a paramilitary group accused of atrocities in Sudan's West Darfur region.
  • Sudan claims the RSF, with UAE backing, committed crimes including genocide, murder, rape, and forced displacement against the Masalit ethnic group.
  • The UAE has denied the allegations, calling the case a baseless attempt to divert attention from Sudan's internal issues, though UN experts and U.S. lawmakers have found some accusations credible.
  • Sudan has requested emergency measures from the court, including reparations for victims and urgent action to protect civilians still at risk.
