The announcement comes after the RSF were blamed for three days of attacks on the usually safe city of Port Sudan, BBC reported.
On Tuesday, Sudan’s Defence Minister Yassin Ibrahim accused the UAE of violating his country’s sovereignty through its “proxy”, the RSF. The UAE has repeatedly denied allegations that it is giving financial, military and political support to the paramilitary force.
Two years of conflict has killed thousands of people, forced millions from their homes and created the world’s worst humanitarian crisis.
Over the past three days, drone strikes have hit an international airport, a major power station and a hotel in Port Sudan. The army has accused the RSF of being behind the assault, but the paramilitary group is yet to comment on the matter.
Until now, Port Sudan had avoided bombardment and was regarded as one of the safest places in the war-ravaged nation.
During the civil war Sudan’s army has accused the UAE of arming the RSF.
Both the UK and the US have singled out the UAE in separate appeals for outside countries to stop backing Sudan’s warring parties.
