Overview
- Sudan presented findings it attributed to the UN Panel of Experts showing eastern Libya’s Kufra, routes through Chad and bases along the Ethiopian border have become key supply and staging hubs for the RSF.
- The government says those networks move fuel, gold, weapons, vehicles and foreign fighters into Sudan through collection points and cargo flights that bypass border controls.
- Sudan argues the RSF has shifted from frontline fighting to long‑range drone strikes that have killed civilians, repeatedly attacked World Food Programme convoys, and struck UN logistics and peacekeeping assets.
- The Sudanese army reported cross‑border operations against RSF convoys that it traced to Kufra camps, and international envoys have urged the UN to broaden arms restrictions to include drones.
- If the Security Council designates the RSF as a terrorist group or widens an embargo, it could open legal and sanctions pathways and further constrain the militia’s external supply routes while shaping regional security responses.
