Sudanese pro-democracy groups launched two days of civil disobedience and strikes on Sunday in protest at last month’s military coup, although participation appeared to be limited by continuing interruptions to internet and phone connections.
Local “resistance committees” and the Sudanese Professionals Association (SPA), which led demonstrations in the uprising that toppled the then-president Omar al-Bashir in April 2019, are organising a campaign of protests to try to reverse the military takeover.
People were out on Sunday on the streets in the centre of the capital, Khartoum, according to Reuters, though there was less traffic than usual, residents said.
