The United States will impose new financial sanctions and ban visas on those who “incite violence” in Sudanhis national security adviser said today White HouseJake Sullivan.

Washington will also announce a revised travel advisory for Sudan. Sullivan did not elaborate on the sanctions the US is considering, nor did he specify who would be targeted.

“The ongoing conflict in Sudan between the Sudanese Armed Forces and the Rapid Support Force (RSF) is a tragedy that has already claimed too many lives and must stop,” Sullivan said. “These measures are aimed at holding accountable those responsible for undermining peace, security and stability in Sudan,” he added.

The new sanctions were announced earlier, from Oslo, Norway, by Foreign Minister Anthony Blinken, speaking to journalists after the end of the NATO meeting. Blinken did not blame either side for violating the temporary truce, which he said was “incredibly incomplete and fragile.”

Hundreds of people have been killed since the civil war that broke out in Sudan on April 15. The internally displaced are estimated at 1.2 million while 400,000 have fled to neighboring countries to escape.

Army chief Abdel Fattah al-Burhan and DTY paramilitary commander Mohamed Hamdan Daglo or Hemeti together overthrew the Sudanese government in October 2021. They were preparing to sign an agreement to hold elections and hand over power to a political government , when the war broke out. The army announced on Wednesday that it was ending talks with the DTY, raising fears that the conflict will further intensify the humanitarian crisis in Africa’s third-largest country.
