What's Sudan's case against the UAE?

Focus on Africa

Available for over a year

Sudan is taking the United Arab Emirates to the International Court of Justice, accusing it of supporting Sudan's paramilitary Rapid Support Forces. Khartoum argues the UAE is "complicit in the genocide" through military, financial and political backing for the RSF. The UAE has strongly rejected Sudan's allegations, calling the case a "cynical publicity stunt" and saying it will seek an immediate dismissal. Also will China be able to fill the gap after the withdrawal of USAID in Africa? And Jamestown in Ghana produces world boxing champions - but what's it like for women wanting to pursue the sport? Presenter: Audrey Brown Technical Producer: Jonathan Greer Producers: Bella Hassan and Yvette Twagiramariya Senior Journalist: Karnie Sharp Editors: Andre Lombard and Alice Muthengi
