Khartoum: Sudanese security forces shot dead three protesters on Thursday during the latest mass demonstrations demanding the transition to the civil administration after the coup, the medical officer said.
The latest murder brings to 60 deaths in security explanations since the October 25 military takeover, said the Sudanese doctor’s Central Committee, which is part of the pro-democracy movement.
One of the demonstrators who was killed took “bullets directly to the head by Putschist forces when he participated in the demonstration” in the twin cities of the capital Omdurman, said the doctors.
The second, which has not yet been identified, “hit by a bullet to the pelvis” during the protest Omdurman while the third was killed in Khartoum North because “bullets live to the chest,” they added.
Medical officers also counted more than 300 injured people including direct rounds, rubber bullets, and other injuries because of the shooting of persistent tear gas.
Their deaths came a day after US Secretary Antony Blinken appealed to Twitter for Sudanese security forces to “stop using deadly power against the demonstrators”.
Authorities regularly deny using direct rounds in dealing with protests.
Singing, beating drums, and raised posters of other people were killed in demonstrations since the military takeover, protesters in the capital Khartoum shouted challenging slogans against the army.
Many protesters in Khartoum were seen injured and struggled with difficulty breathing because of heavy tear gas shooting, according to witnesses.
Demonstrators remained not affected by the risk, which on November 17 saw 15 protesters shot dead on the most bloody day so far.
“We will not stop until we get back our country,” shouted one protester, Samar Al-Tayeb, 22.
Another demonstrator burned a tire to make a barricade burned on the streets.
The crowd lined up to the Presidential Palace in Khartoum when the security forces fired tear gas volleyball which formed a thick cloud and choked, said the saxissises.
Protesters threw back stones in security forces, they added.
“Our march will continue until we restore our revolution and our civilian government, even if the martyrs fall among us,” said Moubaba Hussein, a 23-year-old protester.
Power Grab by Military Chief General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan is one of the few history after Sudan’s independence.
It dismantled the arrangement of the distribution of crucial power between the military and civilians established after a replacement for April 2019 Autocrat Omar al-Bashir.
Protests on Thursday came a few days after Prime Minister Abdalla Hamdok resigned, leaving the full military.
Hamdok has been detained under house arrest for weeks after the coup, before being restored in the November 21 agreement after international pressure.
The protest movement called the November pact a “betrayal” to give what they say is the robe of the legitimacy for Burhan coup, and continue to make demonstrations.
When Hamdok resigned on Sunday, he said Sudan was in “a dangerous intersection that threatened him who was very survival”.
Western nations said the solution was the dialogue, the point made in Wednesday’s tweet by Blinken urged “direct dialogue, Sudan, and facilitated internationally.” The demonstration on Thursday returned in other cities and the capital, said Saksises.
“Authority is that the people,” said the protesters on Wad Madani, demanding the army “back to barracks”.
At Atbara, protesters asked Burhan to “hand over the country’s keys and leave,” said Saksises.
The crowd in the central state of North Cordofan shouted “No, not to rule the military” while waving and wrapped in a national flag.
The others went down to the streets in Central and South Darfur countries, according to witnesses.
On Tuesday the United States, the European Union, England and Norway warned the military against their own successors to Hamdok, said that without the involvement of “various civil stakeholders” such steps could promise the country into the conflict.
On Thursday, the media quoted Media Burhan’s advisor, Taher Abouhaga said, in real reference in the absence of government: “Void must be filled in the most likely time.” Web Monitoring Group Netblocks said cell phone was cut from mid-day days, and wider internet access and telephone lines were also disrupted, tactics were repeatedly used in an effort to disturb activists.
