U.S. Sanctions Target Key Actors in Sudan Conflict
Late Friday, the United States imposed sanctions on eight individuals and entities allegedly contributing to the ongoing civil war in Sudan. This action specifically targets procurement networks linked to the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF), led by General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, and international recruiters purportedly supplying fighters to the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF), commanded by Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo.
Details of the Sanctions
The sanctions were announced by the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC). According to OFAC, these networks have enabled both conflict factions to enhance military operations and extend a war that has escalated into one of the world’s most severe humanitarian crises.
