The restoration of civilian rule in Sudan was demanded during fresh demonstrations that erupted in the country on Sunday.
According to a reporter, thousands of protesters rallied in the capital Khartoum, with demonstrators blocking a number of roads with barricades and burning tyres.
Roads leading to the Presidential Palace and the headquarters of the Sudanese Military Command in the capital were shut down by security forces.
Reports in demonstrations in the cities of Bahri and Omdurman and the eastern city of Kassala were also witnessed.
The military rule and demands for the restoration of civilian rule in Sudan were voiced by protesters through banners.
The former ruling Forces of Freedom and Change coalition and the Resistance Committees, which spearhead the current wave of demonstrations against the military, called for the protests on Sunday.
Since last October, when the military dismissed Prime Minister Abdalla Hamdok’s transitional government, a move decried by political forces as a “military coup,” Sudan has been in turmoil.
According to Sudanese medics, more than 100 people have been killed in protests against the military since then.
