Hague: On April 10, 2025, Sudan presented a case to the International Court of Justice (ICJ), accusing the United Arab Emirates (UAE) of violating the Genocide Convention by supporting the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), a paramilitary group implicated in ethnic-based attacks against the non-Arab Masalit tribe in West Darfur in 2023.
Sudan alleges that the UAE supplied arms to the RSF, facilitating these atrocities. The UAE has denied these allegations, dismissing the case as a politically motivated stunt. Legal experts suggest the ICJ may lack jurisdiction, as the UAE signed the Genocide Convention with reservations limiting the Court’s authority in such matters.
The conflict has drawn international attention, with the United States and United Kingdom calling on the UAE to cease support for the RSF. U.S. lawmakers have introduced legislation to block arms sales to the UAE until it halts support for the RSF.
The ICJ’s proceedings are ongoing, but a final ruling may take years. In the interim, Sudan seeks emergency measures to prevent further genocidal acts.
