Every element of this genocidal campaign bears Abu Dhabi\u2019s fingerprints.<\/p>\n<p>For more than two years, the UAE has poured weapons, ammunition, money, and intelligence support into the RSF, transforming it from a militia into a war machine capable of executing one of the longest sieges of the modern era. This support has been anything but passive:<\/p>\n<p>Financing: The RSF\u2019s ability to sustain the siege rests on Emirati funding, funneled through direct transfers or covert procurement networks.<\/p>\n<p>Arms Supply: UN and independent reports have documented the steady flow of heavy weaponry, drones, and military vehicles from the UAE to RSF-controlled territories.<\/p>\n<p>Mercenary Recruitment: The UAE has actively recruited, transported, and deployed foreign fighters\u2014from Colombia, Somalia, Libya, and Chad\u2014into Sudan, routing them through Kenya, Puntland (Somalia), and other transit points before channeling them into RSF-held corridors.<\/p>\n<p>Strategic Direction: This is not random violence; it is carefully planned, militarily coordinated, and executed with precision\u2014including the use of drones to guide artillery fire onto civilian neighborhoods, markets, and vital infrastructure.<\/p>\n<p>The presence of Colombian mercenaries in central El-Fasher\u2014recently filmed and independently verified\u2014provides the latest irrefutable evidence of the UAE\u2019s direct role in genocide. These fighters are not freelancers; they are integral to a foreign military project designed to starve, displace, and annihilate the civilian population.<\/p>\n<p>Without the UAE\u2019s financial, logistical, and military lifeline, the RSF could not have sustained the siege, much less launched 229 failed assaults on the city. The starvation of El-Fasher is not collateral damage; it is a deliberate strategy conceived in Abu Dhabi, executed by the RSF, and enforced by foreign mercenaries.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sudanese Government Failures<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Absence of bold measures such as airdropping relief despite repeated pleas.<\/p>\n<p>Failure to capitalize on mounting international condemnation of the siege.<\/p>\n<p><strong>An Urgent Call to Action<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We demand:<br \/>\nImmediate humanitarian airdrops over El-Fasher, Kadugli, and Dilling.<\/p>\n<p>Stronger international measures to hold the UAE, the RSF, and all collaborators accountable.<\/p>\n<p>Implementation of UN Security Council Resolution 2736 (2024).<\/p>\n<p>Global solidarity campaigns to keep the El-Fasher crisis at the forefront of public attention.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Final Statement<\/strong><br \/>\nThe siege of El-Fasher is one of the longest and most brutal blockades in modern history.
