Abdelrahim Hamdan Dagalo hit with sanctions for acts of violence and human rights abuses committed by his troops.
Fighting in Sudan between forces loyal to two top generals has put that nation at risk of collapse and could have consequences far beyond its borders.In a parallel statement, U.S. Secretary of State Antony J.
Blinken said Wednesday that the U.S. was also imposing visa restrictions on fellow RSF commander Abdul Rahman Juma, barring him from entering the country. Blinken said forces led by Juma were likewise responsible for rights abuses, including the kidnap and murder of the former governor of West Darfur province, Khamis Abbakar, and his brother in June. Khamis was killed hours after he accused the paramilitary and allied militias of attacking communities across West Darfur’s capital, Genena, during a telephone interview with the Saudi-owned television station Al Hadath. In June, the U.S. imposed sanctions against four key companies either linked to or owned by the army and the RSF. It also placed visa restrictions on officials from both Sudanese sides, as well as leaders from the former government led by ousted President Omar Bashir. It did not specify which individuals were affected. There was no immediate comment from the RSF. A spokesman for the paramilitary force, when contacted by the Associated Press, said they would send a written statement later.
