UK failed to stop el-Fasher massacre because it feared the UAE, MPs told
A UK parliamentary committee was told the UK failed to prevent a massacre in Sudan's el-Fasher due to prioritizing relations with the UAE over civilian safety. Human rights investigator Nathaniel Raymond claimed the UK ignored warnings about UAE-backed paramilitaries committing genocide, despite being uniquely positioned to act as the UN penholder for Sudan.
