The International Court of Justice has dismissed the case filed by the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) against the UAE, citing a lack of jurisdiction.

With the Court's latest ruling, the case has been removed from its list, formally terminating the proceedings.

UAE officials have described the case as baseless and politically motivated.

Reem Ketait, Deputy Assistant Minister of Political Affairs at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, said the verdict is a clear rejection of the SAF's attempt to misuse the court to deflect blame for atrocities in Sudan.
