U.S. Sanctions Eight Entities Fueling Sudan Civil War

The United States Department of the Treasury sanctioned eight individuals and entities for supplying weapons and foreign fighters to warring factions in Sudan.

The United States Department of the Treasury imposed sanctions on eight individuals and entities on June 26, 2026, to disrupt networks fueling the civil war in Sudan. The Office of Foreign Assets Control targeted procurement and recruitment networks that supply weapons, explosives, and foreign fighters to both the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF).

Specific targets include India-based SBL Energy Limited and its CEO Alok Choudhari, who allegedly provided more than 200 shipments of explosives to the Sudan-based Target Multiactivities Company (TMAC) for use in SAF bombs. The U.S. also sanctioned TMAC managing director Tariq Hussain Muhammad Madani and the state-owned Ports Engineering Company Ltd for importing military equipment. Separately, the Treasury targeted Panama-based Talent Bridge SA and retired Colombian officer Alvaro Andres Quijano Becerra for recruiting former Colombian military personnel to fight for the RSF.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent stated the administration is committed to a lasting peace and called for an immediate three-month humanitarian truce. U.S. officials noted that these support networks have prolonged the conflict, exacerbating the world's worst humanitarian crisis and creating opportunities for terrorist organizations to operate.
