There are multiple reasons why Sudan is the world's worst human crisis today, multiple bad actors. But the UAE is one of the worst, with its support for the brutal RSF militia committing mass murder and mass rape. Pres. Trump, having taken $500m from the UAE, is silent about it.

One of the @NBA's biggest sponsors is the #UAE. They also sponsor a genocidal militia in #Sudan.

@NBA Make the right call. End the @emirates deal. https://t.co/MrIcgRe9Nv

The UAE, through it's arming of Sudan's RSF, is probably the most consequential foreign actor in a devastating war.
Now activists are focusing on the UAE's sports sponsorship, calling on @NBA to suspend its brand deal with the country.

Last week, the world lost @HamidMurtada.

His friends have set up a page that memorializes who he was and that gathers his visionary writings and his powerful speeches.

I invite you to get to know Hamid through his words, his actions, and his memory: https://t.co/D2sYdjzOpK

Today you were laid to rest in our beloved #Sudan.
I still don't have the words for the unimaginable pain of losing you, your smile, your mind, your heart, how much you cherished life, and those you loved in it.
Rest now, love, rest in peace and power, my brother @HamidMurtada.

[Sami Abdelhalim Saeed @SamiSaeed121]

We are deeply saddened to share the news of the passing of Hamid Murtada, a dedicated activist, author, and researcher who committed his life to peace, justice, and democracy in Africa.
I had the honor of working alongside Hamid during the pivotal transitional period of 2019-2021. Together, as part of a team at International IDEA, we led the program to support a peaceful democratic transition in Sudan.
Hamid was the embodiment of sincerity and commitment. He was immensely proud of his work and held a deep, unwavering love for his country. His contributions to the discourse on social change will leave a lasting legacy.
May God have mercy on Hamid, grant him paradise, and provide his family and friends with patience and solace during this incredibly difficult time. Rest in peace, Hamid. 🇸🇩

A profound loss for Canada and the world. Stephen Lewis was a political leader of deep integrity, conscience and eloquence. Later, as a diplomat and humanitarian, and as UN envoy for HIV/AIDS, he was one of Africa's greatest advocates - always pushing for attention and support.

ICYMI, Column: St. John’s defied so many conventional wisdoms this season & on the day that season ended did so once more: at a time of vast cynicism in the sport, tears aren’t supposed to be part of the equation anymore. Tell that to the Johnnies.#sjubb https://t.co/YhUqFMnltM

Yes, I know we're all focused on Iran. But the slaughter in Sudan continues, and this excellent piece in The @guardian recounts the mass atrocities that unfolded in El Fasher, Darfur, enabled by our pals in the UAE -- as world leaders looked away. https://t.co/7rmuzYGIPY

UN: 14 million people in Sudan are at risk of explosive hazards , particularly children, according to @UNMAS

Explosive ordnance is now one of the most significant threats to safe humanitarian access.

[Nicholas Kristof @NickKristof]

One of the costs of this unnecessary war on Iran is that it sucks up all the attention so that few pay attention to the ongoing abuses in Sudan, Gaza and the West Bank, Ukraine, Congo and elsewhere. The horrors of Sudan are documented here.
