ANNEX In the Annex to Decision 2014/450/CFSP, the following entries are added: ‘5. JUMA BARKALLA , Abdel Rahman Designation: Rapid Support Forces (RSF) Major General and West Darfur Commander. Date of birth: 1 January 1969. Place of birth: Bahr Elarab, East Darfur, Sudan. Nationality: Sudan. Passport: Sudan P07834700. National identification no: Sudan 21052659309. Date of UN designation: 8 November 2024. Reason for listing: Abdel Rahman Juma Barkalla was listed on 8 November 2024 pursuant to paragraph 3(c) of UNSC Resolution 1591(2005). Information from the narrative summary of reasons for listing provided by the Sanctions Committee: Abdel Rahman Juma Barkalla, Major General of the RSF and West Darfur Commander, is being designated for engaging in actions or policies that threaten the peace, security, or stability of Darfur, including acts of violence and human rights abuses. The RSF’s attacks in Darfur have put hundreds of thousands of civilians at risk due to intense fighting, lack of humanitarian access, and targeted violence toward civilians and human rights activists. In May and June 2023, representatives of civil society in El Geneina, West Darfur, faced targeted threats and killings by the RSF and allied militia. On August 4, 2023, gunmen in RSF uniforms also abducted and killed human rights activist and lawyer Ahmed Mohammed Abdullah and his colleague Adam Omer in Nyala, South Darfur. The Governor of West Darfur, Khamis Abakar, was killed on June 14, 2023, and was last seen with Barkalla (see S/2024/65, para 71). Videos on social media showed Abakar being forced into a building by RSF soldiers, followed by a second video hours later showing Abakar’s dead body and troops in RSF uniforms celebrating around it. Between May and November 2023, the RSF and its allied militia carried out at least 10 attacks against civilians in the West Darfur towns of El-Geneina and Ardamata, killing thousands of people and burying them in more than 13 mass graves. Women and girls were also reportedly raped and sexually abused during these attacks. 6.

Reason for listing: Osman Mohamed Hamid Mohamed was listed on 8 November 2024 pursuant to paragraph 3(c) of UNSC Resolution 1591(2005). Information from the narrative summary of reasons for listing provided by the Sanctions Committee: Osman Mohamed Hamid Mohamed, Major General and Head of RSF Operations Department, is being designated for engaging in actions or policies that threaten the peace, security, or stability of Darfur, including acts of violence and human rights abuses. He has given statements on behalf of the RSF after large victories and is an important part of RSF operational planning. The RSF’s attacks in Darfur have put hundreds of thousands of civilians at risk due to intense fighting, lack of humanitarian access, and targeted violence toward civilians and human rights activists. In May and June 2023, representatives of civil society in El Geneina, West Darfur, faced targeted threats and killings by the RSF and allied militia. On August 4, 2023, gunmen in RSF uniforms also abducted and killed human rights activist and lawyer Ahmed Mohammed Abdullah and his colleague Adam Omer in Nyala, South Darfur. On June 14, 2023, the Governor of West Darfur, Khamis Abakar, was killed after being taken into custody by RSF fighters earlier that day. Videos on social media showed Abakar being forced into a building by RSF soldiers, followed by a second video hours later showing Abakar’s dead body and troops in RSF uniforms celebrating around it. Between May and November 2023, the RSF and its allied militia carried out at least 10 attacks against civilians in the West Darfur towns of El-Geneina and Ardamata, killing thousands of people and burying them in more than 13 mass graves. Women and girls were also reportedly raped and sexually abused during these attacks.’.
