The United Kingdom has imposed sanctions on 15 senior commanders from both the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) and the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF). The measures target individuals suspected of committing atrocities, specifically including conflict-related sexual violence, amid the ongoing conflict in Sudan.

Alongside the punitive diplomatic measures, the UK government announced a financial package totaling £15 million. This new funding is designated to provide assistance directly to survivors of violence and to support broader humanitarian operations addressing the crisis in the region.
