Thousands demonstrate and set up roadblocks in the capital Khartoum demanding the release of arrested government members • Various sectors declared a general strike • During the night security forces opened fire on protesters


Thousands went out this morning (Tuesday) to demonstrate against the military coup that took place yesterday in Sudan.

The demonstrators blocked streets in the capital Khartoum and clashed with army forces, who opened fire on the protesters.

The protest also spread to the country towns near the Sudanese capital, where the military presence is more sparse and civilians can gather without fear.

Demonstrators are calling for the release of members of the government arrested yesterday, including Prime Minister Abdullah Hamduk.

Alongside the demonstrations, dozens of workers' organizations announced a general strike in protest of the military coup.

Miners in the Kabakba area in the north of the country have announced a strike, posting pictures of themselves carrying signs condemning the military coup.

The protesters intend to put pressure on army commanders, led by Abdullah al-Burhan, the president of the Transitional Council and the acting president, in the hope of bringing about the release of at least some of the arrested political parties and government members, thwarting the results of the coup.

Seven protesters were killed yesterday during huge protests against the military coup.

During the night, Sudanese army forces acted against protesters on major arteries in the capital, firing live ammunition at protesters.

Some media in Sudan have claimed that the protesters threw stones and even fired at military personnel.
