Supporters of Sudan’s transitional government have turned out in Khartoum as rival protesters continue a sit-in to demand a military government
Thousands were seen demonstrating on the streets in multiple cities of Sudan, some rallying in support of the government and others backing the military.
The transitional government has attracted controversy, currently being led by a Sovereign Council of military and civilian leaders.
The opposing sides addressed their supporters, urging them to refrain from violence.
The talks were followed by nearly 40 people being injured or with breathing difficulties after authorities tried to break up protests using “force, bullets, and tear gas”.
The protests were organised by the Forces for Freedom and Change coalition, who were behind the rallies that led to the overthrow of their president in 2019.
