German daily taz reports that the United Nations arms embargo covering Darfur, Sudan, expires on Saturday and would need to be renewed by the UN Security Council. The piece connects the embargo to the ongoing war between the Sudanese army and the Rapid Support Forces, with regional players such as the United Arab Emirates, Libya and Colombia drawn into the debate over weapons flows. Commenters are highlighting the risk that letting the embargo lapse could further fuel the conflict.
Why now: The Darfur arms embargo is due to expire at the UN Security Council this weekend, raising fears over arms supplies in Sudan's war.
