US accuses Sudan's RSF of genocide, imposing sanctions on leader Hemedti

Credited from: BBC

  • The US has accused the Sudanese paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) of committing genocide and has imposed sanctions on their leader, Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, known as Hemedti.
  • US Secretary of State Antony Blinken stated that Dagalo's actions involve systematic atrocities during the 20-month conflict, including murder and sexual violence targeting ethnic groups.
  • In retaliation, RSF representatives have criticized the US for double standards and accused it of failing to manage the Sudanese crisis effectively.
  • The ongoing conflict has created a dire humanitarian situation, with estimates of up to 150,000 deaths and famine declared in several regions.
  • The sanctions prevent Hemedti and his family from entering the US, as well as freezing assets and targeting RSF companies linked to arms procurement.
