A Sudanese man confronted Dubai ruler Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al-Maktoum and his entourage on the streets of Knightsbridge, London, over UAE's involvement in the Sudan war. The man shouted at them, accusing the UAE and Emiratis of killing Sudanese people. One of Maktoum's entourage then racially abused the Sudanese man, calling him a "Black bitch."
The confrontation took place after a Saudi news outlet reported a fraternal meeting between Maktoum and UAE President Mohammed bin Zayed in London. UAE's support for Sudan's paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) has been widely reported, though UAE denies it. Human rights groups and UN experts have documented arms transfers to RSF through networks in Libya, Chad, and Somaliland. The conflict in Sudan began in April 2023, leading to a humanitarian catastrophe.
