Investigate the UK military equipments used by RSF militia in Sudan conflict

What the petition asks
A report by The Guardian highlights that UK-manufactured equipments, originally sold to the UAE, have reportedly been used by the RSF. It led into question the current effectiveness of our export control system. It is imperative to ensure British-made arms do not end up in human atrocities in Sudan.
we strongly urge the UK Parliament to take immediate action. We call for a thorough investigation into how UK weapons might have been diverted into the RSF's hands. There is an urgent need to review export licences granted to countries with a track record of diverting weapons to conflicts.
We urge the UK Parliament to act now to investigate and prevent any further contributions towards atrocities in Sudan.
