On May 5, 2025, the International Court of Justice (ICJ) dismissed Sudan's allegations against the United Arab Emirates, which claimed that the UAE was complicit in fueling genocide in the Darfur region by supplying arms to paramilitary forces. Sudan argued that this action constituted a violation of the Genocide Convention. However, the ICJ ruled in favor of the UAE, citing a lack of jurisdiction to hear the case, which highlights the complexities and political sensitivities surrounding international legal proceedings in conflict zones.
The International Court of Justice has dismissed the Sudanese case accusing the United Arab Emirates of fanning the flames of genocide in the Darfur region.
The judges sided with the UAE, accepting its arguments that the UN court "manifestly lacked" jurisdiction to rule on the case.
