On March 9, the U.S. State Department labeled Sudan's Muslim Brotherhood—also known as the Sudanese Islamic Movement and its armed wing—a Specially Designated Global Terrorist, with a full Foreign Terrorist Organization status set for March 16. Officials pointed to the group's violence against civilians in Sudan's civil war, which erupted in April 2023 between the Sudanese Armed Forces and Rapid Support Forces, and its ties to Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps. Many Sudanese celebrated the move as justice after the Brotherhood's 1989-2019 rule under Omar al-Bashir brought economic hardship and division, while Saudi Arabia and the UAE welcomed it; critics see it as tilting toward one side in the conflict.
