Whilst the Government keeps the list of proscribed organisations under review, we do not routinely comment on whether an organisation is or is not under consideration for proscription.

We remain concerned at the behaviour of Sudan’s Rapid Support Forces, including internal repression and human rights violations across the country. We have raised our concerns, including with the RSF leadership.
