The New York Times posted on 5 November 2026 an article titled "UAE Sent 'Desert Wolves' to Help Sudanese Militia Accused of Genocide" by Declan Walsh.
The article details UAE support for the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces in Sudan's civil war. It includes access to a confidential report submitted to the UN Security Council last month detailing how an Emirati security company with close ties to the UAE government moved Columbian mercenaries into Sudan through territory controlled by Emirati proxies in Libya and Somalia.
