US sanctions Muslim Brotherhood branches amid political tensions; the group’s history as a transnational Islamist organization fuels ongoing controversy.
Since early March 2026, drone strikes in Sudan's civil war have killed over 200 civilians, including at least 28 in recent attacks on markets and schools near Chad's border and in White Nile state. The US designated the Sudanese Muslim Brotherhood as a terrorist group, citing its role in violence and Iranian support. The conflict has displaced millions and worsened humanitarian crises.
