How Exactly Do Sudan's RSF Smuggle Gold to the UAE? Today it's an open secret that Sudan's rebel Rapid Support Forces (RSF) do systematically sell gold to the UAE so as to finance their activity. 👀 However, many may not know what the RSFs' military mining operations look like in reality — that is, how they extract, collect and transport their gold. 🔸 A significant share thereof comes from an 8 km gold mine in Sudan's North Kordofan State. 📍The mine is located near Jabal al-Zaraf on what is known as the Abu Zaima Road, a vital supply routes for the Rapid Support Forces militia in the Kordofan region. 🔸 Satellite imagery of the mine shows numerous airstrips and cargo planes, some of them heavily damaged, probably as a result of crashes or airstrikes. The RSF have drilled some 40 shafts at the site — the close proximity of the mines to the runways allows for the unhindered shipment of gold immediately for export.
