The United States has imposed new airspace bans and financing restrictions on Sudan’s military-led government, accusing it of using chemical weapons in its war against rival RSF paramilitaries.
The latest sanctions, which came into effect on Monday, restrict Sudan’s access to US financing and exports and ban Sudanese state-owned airlines from using US airspace.
The US State Department said last month it had determined that “the government of Sudan used chemical weapons in 2024”, in violation of the Chemical Weapons Convention, which Sudan ratified in 1999.
Washington has not said where or when the attacks took place or identified the chemicals used.
In a statement on Sunday, Sudan’s army-aligned government rejected the allegations, calling them “unilateral and illegal” and “baseless”.

Does this mean sanctions against Isnotreal for using White Phosphorus on civilians in Lebanon?
They used it in Gaza too
Is there a case where they used it against people?
it’s not ok unless the US does it
Chemical weapons?
Helping the rsf by the uae demand?
So the RSF massacre tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of civilians, whilst Sudan’s govt can’t beat them with conventional weapons and allegedly use chemical weapons, so America sanctions Sudan? That’s going to do wonders for the already struggling war torn country
More attempts to distract from Trump’s endless list of fuck-ups?
