On June 4, 2025, the Africa Faith and Justice Network was one of over 40 organization that signed on to the Center for Civilians in Conflict’s letter to Members of Congress calling for an end in arm sales to the United Arab Emirates in light of their support to the Rapid Support Forces’ in Sudan. These sales have led to a continuation of instability in Sudan by extending and perpetuating the conflict leading to the loss of life of those living in poverty and the vulnerable and exacerbating the humanitarian crisis.
