UN Fact-Finding Mission Identifies 12 Nations Arming Sudanese Factions
A United Nations fact-finding mission released a report on Thursday warning that at least 12 nations are providing military support to the Sudanese Armed Forces and the Rapid Support Forces. U.S. Senior Advisor Massad Boulos emphasized that this influx of foreign weapons, military technology, and fighters is enabling sophisticated strikes deep into civilian areas, potentially constituting war crimes. The U.S. has submitted a proposal to the UN Security Council for a comprehensive, nationwide arms embargo to halt the escalation.
