Sudan Protests Against Military Rule

Pro-democracy protests have been held in several parts of Sudan in the latest demonstration of anger at the continuing military rule.

The protesters were also marking the anniversary of a 2019 sit-in that led to the overthrow of the former president, Omar al-Bashir.

Report says since the military dominated power, it has followed months of talks, and a deal was supposed to have been signed earlier to launch a new political transition to democracy.

However, it was once again delayed due to disagreements within the security forces.

One area of tension has been a plan to integrate a powerful military unit known as the Rapid Support Forces into the regular army.
