G7 Ministers Demand Sudan's RSF Spare El-Obeid Civilians

The statement leans on the RSF's broken Jeddah Declaration pledges and urges a wider arms embargo after the El Fasher siege.

  • Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, UK, US and the EU signed the statement July 14.
  • Ministers demand RSF halt drone strikes and guarantee safe passage out of El-Obeid.
  • Ministers also urge unnamed external actors to stop arming both warring sides.

Why it matters: Seven governments ask a militia to stop shooting; the ones actually arming it go unnamed by design.
