The UAE-backed Rapid Support Forces (RSF) militia has been accused of perpetrating at least 2,200 cases of r*pe since it began its war on Sudan in April 2023. The allegations came from Sudan’s Attorney General, Entisar Ahmed Abdel Aal, who presented findings from Sudan's National Committee for Investigating Crimes and Violations of National and International Humanitarian Law to the UN Human Rights Council. With the report also claiming that there have been nearly 31,000 k*llings since the war began, the RSF was identified as the primary perpetrator of these atrocities, characterising their actions as systematic war crimes, crimes against humanity, and g*nocide. Central to the investigation is the role of foreign intervention: the Sudanese government has explicitly called on the international community to cut off external support for the RSF, specifically naming the UAE as a critical sponsor providing military equipment and drones. This report underscores the catastrophic human cost of a conflict fueled by foreign proxies who utilise brutal sexual violence and displacement as deliberate tools of control. By documenting the systemic nature of these attacks, the Sudanese government is attempting to force accountability upon both the militia and its international benefactors, whose continued arms supplies, facilitated through regional supply routes, remain the lifeblood of a campaign that has left millions in ruin.
