U.S. lawmakers have introduced resolutions seeking to halt American weapons sales to the United Arab Emirates (UAE) until it is confirmed that the UAE is not arming the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) in Sudan. The resolutions, filed in both the House of Representatives and the Senate, aim to draw attention to the conflict in Sudan, which has become one of the world's worst humanitarian disasters. The UAE has denied the allegations of providing weapons and support to the RSF, but U.N. sanctions monitors have described the accusations as credible. The conflict in Sudan has resulted in thousands of deaths, with famine looming and millions of people in need of aid.
