Sudanese Human Rights Committee Submits Brief to ICC Regarding Egypt’s Involvement in Killing Civilians in Darfur

Khartoum: Rhino – Well-informed sources revealed in press statements that a human rights committee comprising Sudanese legal experts is preparing legal briefs to be submitted to the International Criminal Court, the UN Security Council, and the U.S. Congress regarding the existence of documents and irrefutable evidence concerning Egypt’s involvement in the ongoing bombardment targeting civilians in the Darfur region.

According to the sources, the human rights committee is basing its case on “conclusive evidence and documents” indicating the use of “Akangi” drones in repeated attacks on Darfur cities, launched from the Al-Owaynat base within Egyptian territory, noting that the latest of these attacks targeted the cities of Nyala, Zalingei, and El Geneina, as well as the Al-Da’ein Hospital, where approximately 120 civilians were killed.

The sources said that drone airstrikes have become a daily threat to civilian lives, noting that these attacks have caused thousands of casualties, including women and children. They added that the drones used carry “IHA-230” missiles developed by the Turkish company “Roketsan,” designed for launch from “Bayraktar Akıncı” drones.

In the same context, corroborating sources attributed the escalation in airstrikes to economic and political repercussions, including the suspension of Sudanese exports to Egypt, as well as what they described as the failure of attempts to divide the ranks of the Rapid Support Forces by recruiting some military leaders, asserting—in their words—that these moves did not affect the cohesion of the forces.
