Ahmed Awad Ibn Auf (born c. 1956; Arabic: أحمد عوض بن عوف‎) is a Sudanese military officer and politician who served as the de facto head of state for one day[4] from 11 April 2019 to 12 April 2019 after taking part in the 2019 Sudanese coup d'état.

[11] Auf was on a May 2007 list of individuals sanctioned by the United States due to his alleged role as a liaison between the Sudanese government and the Janjaweed in the Darfur War and his close relations to Iran.

The National Assembly was dissolved, with Auf adding that Sudan was preparing for "free and fair" elections.

He resigned the next day due to continued protests which stemmed from the fact that many people considered him a leading figure from the previous government, this was further aggravated by his decision not to extradite al-Bashir to the International Criminal Court.

[15][16] As his final act Auf made Lt. Gen. Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, who served as general inspector of the armed forces, his successor.
