- One witness describes being repeatedly bled alongside dozens of detainees compelled to cook and clean before escaping to the Tawila camp.
- Investigations and videos allegedly show RSF fighters carrying German-made G36 rifles, intensifying questions about possible UAE re-exports despite a long-standing UN embargo.
- A parliamentary query found roughly €245 million in German arms approved for the UAE since early 2023, while the government cites on-site checks with no irregularities and says it has no evidence of German weapons in Sudan.
- Amnesty International and a Left party lawmaker urge suspending exports to the UAE until firm guarantees are in place, and the army rejected an RSF-announced three-month ceasefire.
