Pro-democracy protests have returned to Sudan following three weeks of military rule, internet shutdowns and violence from authorities.
At least five people were killed on Saturday, four of whom were fatally shot, while a fifth suffocated on tear gas, according to the Central Committee of Sudanese Doctors, which is aligned with the protest movement. At least 40 protesters were seriously injured.
More than half a million people took part in Khartoum’s main demonstration, according to Middle East Eye’s correspondent on the ground, Mohammed Amin, who said the march stretched on for more than 12 miles.
