Sudan cuts ties with UAE over RSF support allegations

Sudan has cut diplomatic ties with the UAE, accusing it of backing the rival Rapid Support Forces (RSF) in the civil war, BBC reported.

The move followed RSF strikes on Port Sudan and includes the removal of Sudan's ambassador and the closing of its missions in the UAE.

Defence Minister Yassin Ibrahim accused the UAE of violating Sudan's sovereignty by supporting the RSF, an accusation the UAE disputes. The two-year violence has killed thousands and uprooted millions, as stated by BBC.
