The UAE government has slammed Sudan for filing the case,ijogo slots dismissing it as a "cynical publicity stunt." As per the statement from Foreign Minister Anwar Gargash, Abu Dhabi will be working towards the "immediate dismissal of the case."

“Sudan’s priority should be to cease fire in this absurd and destructive war and address the massive humanitarian catastrophe”, Gargash stated on X.

"The army and its Muslim Brotherhood partners, remnants of the former regime, continue their feeble media maneuvers to justify their rejection of peace and the political track, while providing protection to those wanted by the International Criminal Court," he added further.

الأولوية في السودان الشقيق يجب أن تكون وقف إطلاق النار في هذه الحرب العبثية المدمرة والتصدي للكارثة الإنسانية الهائلة، ولكن الجيش وشركاءه من الإخوان المسلمين من بقايا النظام السابق، يواصلون مناوراتهم الإعلامية الهزيلة لتبرير رفضهم للسلام وللمسار السياسي، بينما يوفرون الحماية…

Abu Dhabi has been accused of supporting and aiding the RSF as the nation records its third major civil war.

After being outplayed by Kenin in the opening set, the world number 72 responded in the second to take the match the distance in New York. 

The 34-year-old Evans ran away with the last six games in the final set to overcome the 0-4 deficit. In the last game, Khachanov saved two match points, before eventually succumbing to the third one which fittingly was a marathon 22-shot rally. Evans was on the defensive for much of the point, before hitting a hard shot to the corner that Khachanov couldn’t retrieve with his backhand.

The ongoing war broke out in 2023 and since then, over 8.2 million people in Sudan have been displaced. As per a study by Yale University’s Humanitarian Research Lab, around 200,000 people have allegedly been killed since April 2023.
