<p>In response to the ongoing conflict and deteriorating humanitarian situation in
Sudan, on 12 July I announced a package of six sanctions under the UK's Sudan (Sanctions)
(EU Exit) Regulations 2020. The UK has imposed an asset freeze on three commercial
entities linked to the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and three commercial entities linked
to the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), as the two main parties to the conflict. These
sanctions, which target entities which the SAF and RSF have used to support their
war efforts, are designed to press the parties into a permanent ceasefire, allow unfettered
humanitarian access and commit to a sustained and meaningful peace process.</p>
