Salah Abdallah Mohamed Salah (Salah Gosh) is a former high-ranking Sudanese government official who left his position following the fall of the al-Bashir regime, and since that time has undertaken efforts to destabilize Sudan. Salah Gosh has been identified as a leader among the elements of the defunct al-Bashir regime responsible for security and military-related efforts. This group of former al-Bashir regime insiders prepared efforts to execute a coup against Sudan’s civilian government, with Salah Gosh working to attain regional and international support for their efforts. Salah Gosh has in the past publicly advocated for the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) to overthrow Sudan’s civilian government, commenting that he was prepared to provide thousands of trained jihadist fighters to support the effort. Salah Gosh is being designated for being a foreign person who is responsible for, or complicit in, or has directly or indirectly engaged or attempted to engage in actions or policies that threaten the peace, security, or stability of Sudan.
