President William Ruto has dismissed the allegations that the Rapid Support Forces leader Gen Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, also known as Hemedti, is in Kenya. "The main accusation against Kenya is that we have Hemedti in one of our hospitals in Nairobi which is not true. Kenya was elected as Chair of the IGAD quartet to resolve issues in Sudan on June 12, 2023, in Djibouti; other countries in the quartet include Sudan, South Sudan, and Ethiopia. During Friday's interview, Ruto said the war in Sudan was unacceptable, adding there were already signs of genocide. What is going on in Sudan is unacceptable, military power is being used by both sides to destroy the country and to kill civilians.
