British MPs from several parties have urged the UK government to review the sale of arms to the UAE that could be used in Sudan after the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) seized the city of el-Fasher in North Darfur and massacred civilians there.
The Liberal Democrats and the Green Party, as well as MPs from Labour, the Independent Alliance and the Scottish National Party, demanded a suspension of arms sales to the United Arab Emirates in comments to Middle East Eye on Friday.
It emerged earlier this week that British military equipment was found in RSF hands in combat zones in Sudan.
On Sunday, the RSF seized el-Fasher after beseiging the city - where 260,000 people were trapped - for more than 500 days.
The paramilitaries have committed widespread atrocities in the wake of their triumph, filming themselves massacring fleeing civilians and reportedly executing 460 people in a hospital.
