A demonstration near the presidential palace in Khartoum to demand civilian rule
Thousands of Sudanese protested Tuesday near the presidential palace in the capital to demand civilian rule, as Sudanese security forces fired tear gas canisters to disperse them, eyewitnesses told AFP.
Tuesday's protests come more than a month after the decisions of the Sudanese army chief, Lieutenant-General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, on the twenty-fifth of October, when he dissolved all the institutions of the transitional authority and overthrew his civilian partners with whom he was sharing power under an agreement concluded in 2019 following the overthrow of Omar al-Bashir.
Since then, the streets of the capital and some states have witnessed continuous protests calling for civilian rule.
