Sudan’s Foreign Minister Ali Youssef also criticized the British authorities for inviting countries, including Kenya, Chad, and the United Arab Emirates (UAE), which his government considers part of the conflict.

Since mid-April 2023, Sudan has been embroiled in an internal war, following a power struggle between Army Chief, General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, and the leader of the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF), General Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo.

Due to the conflict, more than 24,000 people have been killed, while more than 14 million Sudanese are being kept from their homes, in what experts consider to be the largest displacement crisis globally.

The fighting has also destroyed countless livelihoods, plunging the country into a complex spiral of hunger and death.
