Sudan: Sudanese UN Envoy - Eastern Libya, Chad and Ethiopia Are Supply Routes for RSF Militia

Sudan's Permanent Representative to the United Nations, Ambassador Al-Harith Idris, informed the UN Security Council that eastern Libya serves as a key supply route for the RSF militia. The UN Panel of Experts found that Kufra Airport had been renovated and expanded, leading to an increase in cargo flights. The RSF received direct support from Libyan armed groups, foreign recruits were deployed, and RSF-aligned factions were assisted in crossing the Libyan border.

Idris also highlighted the Chad and Ethiopian axes as significant supply routes. The Chad axis has become a major hub in the war economy, with smuggling networks transporting fuel, gold, weapons, and fighters between Libya, Chad, and Sudan. In Ethiopia, a supply center and rear base for the RSF was established along the border in late 2025, leading to the opening of a new front against the Sudanese Army in the Blue Nile region.

The RSF recruited mercenaries from Ethiopia and South Sudan, using them in the attack on Geissan. Ambassador Idris emphasized that these activities constitute acts of aggression and violate international laws, calling for verification and fact-finding mechanisms.
