Human rights group presses Canada to declare Sudan's RSF guilty of genocide, as the U.S. has.

A human rights group is urging Canada to declare that Sudan's paramilitary force, the Rapid Support Forces, is committing genocide, following a similar declaration by the U.S. The group claims the RSF has been targeting ethnic groups in Darfur using weapons from the UAE. The U.S. has imposed sanctions on the RSF and UAE companies linked to arms supply. However, Canada has yet to comment on whether it will declare genocide, though it has signed a joint statement marking the anniversary of South Sudan's secession.
