Sudan’s Minister of Culture and Information, Graham Abdel Qader, on Tuesday issued a decision to suspend the work of a number of television channels operating in Sudan and broadcast from the UAE, after accusing them of not adhering to professionalism.

The decision included “Al-Arabiya”, “Al-Hadath” and “Sky News Arabia”, noting that these channels did not renew their licenses to practice media work.

The Sudan News Agency (SUNA) explained that this decision was based on the guidelines and requirements of professionalism in media work, and to promote the interest of the Sudanese citizen and his values.

For his part, the Sudanese Minister of Culture and Information indicated that this step comes within the framework of keenness to enhance professionalism and transparency in the media sector, and to ensure the transfer of news and information in an objective and accurate manner.

The move comes days after Sudan accused the United Arab Emirates of interfering in its internal affairs and sent a formal complaint to the United Nations and the Security Council accusing Abu Dhabi of supporting the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) in the country’s conflict.
