Sudan Events – Follow-ups
U.S. Special Envoy to Sudan, Tom Periello, stated that reports indicating that Rapid Support Forces soldiers poisoned hundreds of Sudanese in the village of Al-Hilaliya, east of Al-Jazeera, are “shocking to the conscience.”
Periello confirmed in a tweet that poisoning food in a country already suffering from famine is “especially heinous.”
He added, “If these reports are confirmed, General Hemeti and all the leadership of the Rapid Support Forces must be held accountable for this.”
He continued, “Emergency supplies and aid must be delivered to Al-Hilaliya immediately.”
