Khartoum Opposes Extending Weapons Ban
The United Nations Security Council extended the sanctions regime imposed on Sudan for another month until October 9, 2026. This includes a ban on the supply of weapons to the Darfur region, but it rejected the American proposal to expand the sanctions to cover all Sudanese territory. Sudan considered that expanding the ban threatens its ability to defend itself and strengthens armed groups outside the state, criticizing the equating of the army and Rapid Support Forces, and expressed its opposition to unilateral sanctions without comprehensive discussion. The conflict in Darfur has continued since 2003, resulting in hundreds of thousands of deaths and the displacement of millions, alongside the current war that broke out in mid-2023 between the Sudanese army and the Rapid Support Forces, leading to a severe humanitarian crisis.
