  • The civil war erupted in Khartoum in April 2023 after tensions between Sudan's army and the RSF escalated, leading to widespread conflict.
  • Sudan's foreign ministry claimed to hold irrefutable evidence that Emirati authorities sponsored and financed Colombian and neighboring African mercenaries.
  • Over 40,000 people have died, 12 million have been displaced, and Amnesty International reported UAE-made armored vehicles were seized by Sudanese forces.
