A military coup in Sudan is imminent: The military faction in the Sudanese government led by General Burhan carried out a wave of arrests last night against the civilian faction in the government.
The home of Prime Minister Abdullah Hamduk is besieged and he is under house arrest, and military forces are on the streets.
Many government ministers and major party leaders have also been arrested in the country.
In recent weeks, tensions between the military and civilians in the Sudanese government have reached a peak following the thwarting of an attempted coup by military officials loyal to ousted dictator Omar al-Bashir.
The military response has not yet been received, and state television continues to broadcast as usual.
In contrast, the Reuters news agency was told that Internet services had been shut down in the bow of the capital.

The crisis in Sudan: Military supporters have called for a coup against the civilian government
To the full article
About a week ago, opponents of the transitional government in Sudan demonstrated in the streets of Khartoum and called on the army to take over the country in the shadow of the escalation of the country's political crisis.
During the demonstrations, thousands of protesters gathered outside the presidential palace, calling for "on with the hunger government" and a military coup.
The military and civilian organizations have been in power since the overthrow of dictator Omar al-Bashir in 2019. However, tensions between the camps have increased since a coup attempt last month, which security forces say was planned by Bashir's followers.
Since then, military leaders have called for reforms in the Coalition for Freedom and Change, a civilian alliance that led the anti-Bashir demonstrations and is a key part of the transitional government.
The armed forces also called for a change of government, while the civilian leadership accused them of trying to seize power by force.
