#England — Manchester City owner Sheikh Mansour has been accused of supplying weapons to Rapid Support Forces (RSF), which faces genocide allegations in Sudan. Human rights organization FairSquare has asked the United Kingdom government to open an investigation into Sheikh Mansour.
The organization says there are numerous credible sources indicating that the United Arab Emirates has violated the United Nations arms embargo since 2023 by providing weapons, ammunition and logistical support to the Rapid Support Forces. FairSquare describes Sheikh Mansour as “a senior and visible UAE intermediary with the RSF before and after the outbreak of conflict in Sudan.”
The complaint states that Sheikh Mansour had high-level contact with the Rapid Support Forces both before and during the war, and that formal notification was also made to United Kingdom football authorities.
The development comes as ownership checks in English football are expected to be tightened. Manchester City is also still facing 115 separate charges over alleged breaches of financial rules.
300 Palestinian patients have died in Gaza while waiting to be evacuated for medical reasons since the "ceasefire" began last October, according to figures from the Gaza Ministry of Health.

Half of all college graduates in NYC are immigrants or from immigrant households. So when observers say college grads in NYC are embracing communism this is not a home-grown phenomenon.
Congratulations to my dear friend @bradlander on his victory in New York’s Democratic primary.
I had the pleasure of meeting him last year, and I was deeply impressed by his integrity, vision, and courage. More than that, he is a true partner in our shared struggle.
Because the fight for equality, democracy, and peace knows no borders.
Yep, must be "genuinely scary" for the Jewish residents of New York's 10th, one of the most Jewish districts in America, who voted tonight to replace a pro-genocide Jewish congressman with an anti-genocide Jewish congressman.
Were Jews also winning political seats in 1930s Germany? Like Brad Lander did tonight? Stop being an antisemite, Scott. We’re not all the same. We have different ideas and politics. Get it?
The Israeli Supreme Court, supposedly the last bastion of Israeli "democracy", just signed Dr Husam Abu Safiya's death warrant.
The court rejected his appeal and ordered for the continuation of his unlawful detention, knowing full well that he is being held in abhorrent conditions, without cause or indictment and being subjected to torture on a regular basis.
Hostage taking, torture, rejection of the most basic human rights; with this kind of democracy, who needs fascism?
Free Dr Husam Abu Safiya now!
Gut wrenching to see four young people jailed for direct action against an arms supplier to Israel.
Years in prison for protesting to save lives in Gaza, with 'terrorism' used despite no jury convicting them of it.
A truly dangerous attack on the right to protest.
The pain is still ongoing, and the suffering has not ended yet, and the costs of my treatment exceed my ability 💔
Three years of war, fear, hunger, and malnutrition have exhausted my body and destroyed my strength while I am in the prime of my youth 😞
For days I have not known sleep because of the pain of my three completely damaged teeth, and I cannot even eat food or drink water...
I write to you with tears in my eyes that you stand with me and do not leave me suffering from this unbearable pain, while I am completely unable to do anything on my own.
My husband is sick and my four children are all under the age of six, and I cannot take care of them because of the severity of the pain in my teeth.
I appeal to you with a broken heart to stand with me and help me collect $500 to complete my dental treatment sessions, which I fear may stop after I have already begun them.
My friends, kind-hearted people, and everyone who can help, help me, and if you cannot help, then share this tweet so that it may reach someone who can help me.
🙏🙏
