The Sudanese Alliance for Rights (SAR) announced that it has filed a legal case before the International Criminal Court (ICC) against four senior leaders of the Port Sudan authorities, including Chairman of the Sovereign Council Abdel Fattah al-Burhan.

The lawsuit accuses the leaders of using chemical weapons and committing serious violations against civilians amid the ongoing conflict that has engulfed Sudan for years. It also targets Yasser al-Atta, Shams al-Din al-Kabashi, and Major General Taher Mohammed, calling for a comprehensive investigation and the prosecution of those responsible, sending a clear message that impunity will not be tolerated under international law.
