Sudan’s UN Representatives Blames Some “International Actors” for Prolonging the War, Calls for the RSF be Designated Terrorist Organization

New York – Sudanhorizon
Sudan’s Permanent Representative to the United Nations, Ambassador Al-Harith Idris, has blamed what he described as the “passive neutrality” of some international actors for prolonging the war in Sudan and providing political cover for the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) militia to continue its violations against civilians. The ambassador called on members of the UN Security Council to designate the RSFas a terrorist group, as it meets the legal criteria for crimes of terrorism and genocide.
In a statement before the Security Council on Friday Ambassador Al-Harith emphasized that the continuation of the war, despite international condemnations, is due to the failure of some parties to fulfill their moral and legal obligations, noting that this approach has encouraged the militia to continue committing atrocities.
Al-Harith explained that the (RSF) militia committed crimes amounting to genocide, including executions, rape, sexual slavery, and the targeting of civilians, including people with disabilities, in addition to more than 200 drone attacks in North Kordofan. This occurred while the militia continued its plan to partition the country, establish parallel governing structures, and create a central bank, all with the ongoing support of the UAE for the RSF and its foreign mercenary allies.
Idris stated that the UAE’s support for the RSF included opening more military fronts across the Chadian and Libyan borders, enabling them to acquire advanced weaponry, including drones, jamming systems, and air defense systems. He added that this support also included sustained funding, political and media cover, the transfer of militia leaders abroad for medical treatment, and the facilitation of gold smuggling operations.
Al-Harith pointed to the existence of a logistical support center for transporting Emirati supplies to the militia, in clear violation of Resolution 1591. He also mentioned the transfer of fighters, weapons shipments, combat vehicles, and air defense systems to Sudanese territory in South Blue Nile, and the establishment of supply and equipment lines in the town of Kurmuk on the border with Ethiopia. He noted the presence of a secret training camp in the region, where convoys of mobile units and combat vehicles participated in operations in South Blue Nile. He added that the Central African Republic’s borders are being exploited as a logistical corridor for foreign fighters.
Furthermore, Ambassador Al-Harith revealed the existence of complex networks for transporting mercenaries, including elements from Colombia, who have enjoyed absolute Emirati sovereignty.
These mercenaries travel via routes passing through the UAE, Libya, and Chad, reaching Darfur. He indicated that Nyala Airport has been transformed into a major nighttime supply base for the militia, with dirt landing strips prepared to facilitate military transport operations.
Idris highlighted the conditions of detainees in militia-controlled areas, noting their exposure to serious violations, including torture and human organ trafficking, and called for urgent international intervention.
Idris also highlighted the situation of detainees in areas controlled by the militia, pointing out that they are subjected to serious violations, including torture and trafficking in human organs, and called for urgent international intervention. The Security Council, the United Nations, and the International Committee of the Red Cross were urged to ensure unimpeded access to places of detention, provide protection and humanitarian assistance, conduct independent investigations, and hold those responsible accountable.
In this context, the Sudanese representative affirmed his country’s commitment to facilitating the delivery of humanitarian aid, noting the opening of several airports, including Madani, Kadugli, El Obeid, and Damazin, as humanitarian hubs for the delivery of relief supplies.
He explained that the government had provided more than 68% of the needs of those affected, while funding for the UN plan had not exceeded 37.2%, resulting in a significant humanitarian gap and leaving millions of people without support.
Al-Harith revealed that criminal cases had been filed against the militia, including thousands of cases related to murder, rape, and enforced disappearance, confirming that a number of these cases had been referred to the courts, in line with the state’s commitment to the principle of no impunity.
He pointed to the widespread destruction inflicted by the militia on infrastructure, including thousands of government and service buildings and institutions, and damage to the health and electricity sectors, in addition to economic losses estimated at approximately $771 billion.
