Five Shot Dead in Sudan Anti-Coup Protests

Five Shot Dead in Sudan Anti-Coup Protests

Alwaght- Sudanese security forces opened fire on anti-coup protesters on Saturday, killing five and wounded dozens of others during a crackdown on renewed pro-democracy protests.

According to the Central Committee of Sudanese Doctors, which is aligned with the protest movement, four protesters were fatally shot, while a fifth suffocated on tear gas. At least 40 protesters were seriously injured. 

More than half a million people took part in Khartoum demonstrations, according to Middle East Eye's correspondent on the ground, Mohammed Amin, who said that at one point the march stretched on for more than 12 miles. 

The protest came two days after the military formed a ruling council excluding the country's main civilian bloc.

Army chief Abdel Fattah al-Burhan arrested Prime Minister Abdalla Hamdok on 25 October, along with several other key officials, and seized control of the country. 

On Saturday, protesters took to the streets, chanting anti-military slogans such as "the people want the fall of the regime" and holding up pictures of Hamdok, now a symbol of resistance to military rule. At least 20 protesters have been killed in total since the army takeover.
