21/5/2022: AFP – One Killed in Renewed Anti-coup Protests in Sudan

AFP report that Sudanese security forces killed one protester during renewed demonstrations against a military take over that derailed a transition to civilian rule last year, medics said.

The victim, who was not identified, died from "a bullet to the chest" in the capital's twin city of Omdurman, the pro-democracy Central Committee of Sudan Doctors said in a statement.

The latest death brings the toll to 96 from a crackdown on anti-coup protests which have taken place regularly since the October 25 military coup led by army chief Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, the committee said.
