In Sudan, security forces fired live ammunition, stun grenades and tear gas at protesters on Tuesday as demonstrations continue across Sudan demanding civilian rule. Security forces blocked roads leading to the Republican Palace in central Khartoum. Seventy protesters were reportedly injured across the country Tuesday. The protest came two days after Prime Minister Abdalla Hamdok resigned.

Sami Saleh: “Today, after Hamdok’s resignation, the people are confirming the need for Sudanese men and women of all parties to move forward despite the repression. They are facing off against the state, as you can hear the sound of the bombs being fired at those on the frontlines who are facing this abuse for the sake of a free, peaceful and just state.”
