US sanctions UAE-backed RSF mercenary network

The United States Treasury Department has imposed sanctions on networks recruiting mercenaries from Colombia to fight for the UAE-backed Rapid Support Forces (RSF) in Sudan. The sanctions target individuals and entities fueling the conflict and exacerbating famine in the volatile region. Washington has also urged a three-month ceasefire to allow for humanitarian aid delivery. This action underscores US efforts to disrupt foreign support for the paramilitary group.
