UN extends Darfur arms embargo as US seeks nationwide ban

Original: UN Security Council extends arms embargo in Sudan's Darfur as US pushes for nationwide ban

The UN Security Council has voted to extend the arms embargo covering Sudan's Darfur region, while the United States is pressing for the restriction to be expanded to the whole country. The move comes as Sudan's civil war between the army and the Rapid Support Forces continues to fuel one of the world's worst humanitarian crises, with weapons flows to both sides under scrutiny.

Why now: Sudan's ongoing civil war and international efforts to curb weapon supplies are keeping the conflict high on the global agenda.
