The leakage of (very secret) report – Al -Zawiya Net

Follow-up- Al-Zawiya Net- The pressure on the United Arab Emirates is increasing because of its attendance today a decisive conference in London aimed at stopping the war in Sudan after a very secret report on the United Nations raised new questions about the UAE’s role in the devastating conflict.

The United Arab Emirates was accused of providing Sudanese paramilitary militias with weapons secretly across the neighboring state of Chad, a charge that has been strongly denied.

However, an internal report – classified as a very secret and viewed by the (Guardian) newspaper – revealed “multiple” flights from the United Arab Emirates, where transport planes apparently deliberately made to avoid discovering them while flying to bases in Chad where weapons are monitored across the border to Sudan.

These accusations raise complications for British Foreign Secretary David Lami, who called on the UAE alongside 19 other controversial countries to a conference that discusses the issue of war and peace in Sudan in Lancaster House today, April 15th.

This date coincides with the second anniversary of the civil war that caused the largest humanitarian crisis in the world, and led to the displacement of more than 12 million people.

“The United Kingdom needs to clarify how it responds to the massacres targeting children and relief workers while hosting the United Arab Emirates at its conference in London.”

The 14-page report-which was completed last November and sent to the Sudan Penal for the UN Security Council-was sent by a committee consisting of five United Nations experts “documented a steady pattern of flight flights to the UNHER-76 TD aircraft from the United Arab Emirates” to Chad, where they identified from there at least three land roads that can be used to transport weapons to the neighboring Sudan.

The researchers found that air freight flights from United Arab Emirates airports to Chad were so regular, to the point that they were actually created a “new regional air bridge”.

They pointed out that flights showed strange characteristics, as the planes often disappeared during “decisive parts” of their flight, which is the pattern that experts said “raises questions about possible secret operations.”

But the experts added that they were unable to determine what the aircraft was carrying or finding any evidence that the planes were transporting weapons.

In the final report of the United Nations Experts Committee, which is scheduled to be published within days, the results of the many shipping trips from the United Arab Emirates to Chad. In the final expert’s report, consisting of 39 pages, was not indicated except with regard to peace talks.

Questions about the alleged role of the United Arab Emirates in supporting the Palmex Rapid Forces after the weekend, which witnessed its fighters killed more than 200 civilians in a wave of violence against weak ethnic groups in the camps of the displaced and around the city of El Fasher, the last major city still under the control of the Sudanese army in Darfur.

The diplomat added: “It will be a shame that the conference will not provide concrete protection for civilians in the context of the continuous collective genocide.”

In January, the United States officially announced that the Rapid Support militia committed genocide in Sudan.

The United Arab Emirates confirmed its commitment to permanent peace in Sudan.

In their update for the month of November, the United Nations experts, who are investigating the possibility of smuggling weapons from Chad to Darfur in a possible violation of the arms ban, identified at least 24 Eu-76 TD-HD charging flights at Amsharas Airport in Chad last year.

They pointed out that these trips coincided with the escalation of the fighting in El -Fasher, especially “the increase in the activity of drones carried out in the first place, the rapid support forces for the purposes of fighting and intelligence”, which experts said that its arrival in Sudan represents a “new technological stage in the management of hostilities.”

Some of the flights identified by the report were linked to airline companies previously linked to “military logistical services and the transport of illegal weapons.” Experts said that two of them had previously been charged with violating the arms ban.

Experts also examined “regular departures” to Chad from two airports in the United Arab Emirates – in the Emirate of Ras Al Khaimah and Al Ain in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi – and they found that the trips were repeatedly disappeared from radars during the decisive moments.

On one occasion, the report described how she left the journey of “Ras Al Khaimah, and disappeared in the middle of the trip, and later appeared in Ingamena, the capital of Chad, before returning to Abu Dhabi.”

But UN experts said they could not prove that the planes were carrying weapons because “flights were lacking evidence related to the specific content that is being transferred.”

Four of the five experts at the United Nations said that although flights “represent an important new trend”, what they managed to discover “failed to meet the evidence of evidence related to the evidence of weapons.”

For example, although the residents of Nyala in South Darfur reported “the activity of shipping aircraft, and that the informants attributed this to the logistical operations of the Rapid Support Forces, there were no other confirmed evidence of the nature of the transferred shipment.”

Therefore, experts said that “it is too early to conclude that these flights were part of the weapons transport network.” They also added that the connection of many flights and freight companies with military logistics and previous weapons violations “does not provide evidence of current weapons transportation.”

She added: “In addition, the patterns and homosexuality in the flight paths, such as the disappearance of the radar during the flight and the unregistered takeoff, raised concerns, but did not provide confirmed evidence directly linking these flights with arms shipments.”

She said that “bridging these investigative gaps is crucial.”

These statements come days after the International Court of Justice in The Hague in a lawsuit filed by Sudan accuses the United Arab Emirates of “collusion in genocide” during the war. The court listened to allegations that the Rapid Support Forces are responsible for severe human rights violations, including mass killing, rape and forced displacement in West Darfur.

The United Arab Emirates said that the issue is a satirical propaganda trick and a “platform for launching attacks against the Emirates.”

An Emirati source indicated that the UN expert report included the evacuation of the responsibility that four members of the five committee felt that “the allegations of the air bridge from the United Arab Emirates to Sudan via Chad failed to meet the proof requirements required to prove the existence of a clear link between documented flights and the transfer of alleged weapons.”

A statement issued by the United Arab Emirates added that the imminent final report of the Sudanese Experts Committee did not refer to the Emirates regarding any flights “because the allegations against us did not meet the minimum evidence set by the committee. The record speaks for itself.”

She added that the Sudan Sanctions Committee of the Security Council informed her that the final report “did not reach any negative results” against it.

The statement stated that “the latest report by the United Nations Experts Committee shows that there is no certain evidence that the United Arab Emirates has provided any support to the Rapid Support Forces, or that it has any involvement in the conflict.”
