French military technology, specifically from KNDS-France and Lacroix, has been integrated into Emirati armoured vehicles and is being used by the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) in Sudan's civil war, according to Amnesty International. This use is in violation of a UN arms embargo on the Darfur region. The RSF, accused of war crimes, is employing these vehicles in the ongoing conflict. France has condemned the attacks by the RSF against civilians in Gezirah, calling for an end to the conflict. Amnesty International's investigation highlights the breach of international arms control measures.
