US imposes sanctions on Sudan's army chief over tactics in deadly civil war

ai generated text

The Sudanese general, Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, is facing accusations of carrying out "lethal attacks" against civilians during the ongoing conflict with the RSF paramilitary. This move comes after the Biden administration imposed sanctions on Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, the leader of the RSF. Secretary of State Antony Blinken expressed regret over the failure to end the brutal war, which has been ongoing since April 2023. The Sudanese army's tactics have included bombing of civilian infrastructure, according to the treasury department.

    1. It is for me, yes, another real regret that when it comes to Sudan, we haven't been able, on our watch, to get to that day of success.
    2. It's obstructed the advancement of a peace process. It's refused to participate on numerous occasions in ceasefire talks that we've sought to convene.
    3. Taken together, these sanctions underscore the US view that neither man is fit to govern a future, peaceful Sudan.
    4. We'll keep working here for the next three days, and I hope the next administration will take that on as well.
    5. And together with the RSF, it's caused what is the world's worst humanitarian crisis that people are suffering through every day.
