Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the 2024 Annual Threat Assessment of the US Intelligence Community, which warns that Sudan risks becoming an ideal environment for international terrorist and criminal networks, and predicts the expansion of affiliates of the Islamic State and al-Qaeda in the region.

We note the 2024 Annual Threat Assessment of the US Intelligence Community. We work closely with international partners, including the US, and we continue to support mediation efforts and urge both warring parties to engage constructively to secure a ceasefire and prevent the conflict spreading further.
