Sudan: protester killed in anti-coup demonstrations

At least one protester lost his life in Sudan when security forces tried to disperse them during the anti-coup demonstration in the capital, Khartoum, and other cities, local media reported.

In a statement, the Central Committee of Sudanese Doctors said the protester died “after he was hit by live bullets in the face”.

The group accused “forces of the coup authorities” of killing him during anti-coup protests in the city of Omdurman.

Pro-democracy activists have been organising protests against the military authorities since October 2021, when the army ousted the civilian-led transitional government and took over power.

It said so far 116 civilians had been killed in protests against the coup.
