## Prediction

Within the next 24 hours, RSF attacks around Al-Fashir will sustain extreme risk of mass atrocities and civilian casualties, with only symbolic or small-scale humanitarian assistance able to enter the city. UAE-backed arms flows to RSF via Chad will reinforce the attackers’ capabilities and prolong the assault. International actors will issue strong condemnations and may start discussing targeted sanctions, but no rapid protective military response will materialize. Displacement will intensify toward already-overcrowded IDP camps with limited food, water, and medical support.

## Drivers

- Reports of genocidal RSF assault on Al-Fashir and repeated references to 'RSF genocide'
- Evidence of UAE arms shipments and flights to RSF via Chad
- Historical slow pace of international military or robust peacekeeping responses in Sudan
- Current global distraction by crises in Ukraine and Hormuz
