SUDAN INSIGHT ALERT: BBC - Sudan coup protesters: 'They cannot kill us all'

7/11/2021: BBC - Sudan coup protesters: 'They cannot kill us all', by Andrew Harding

The BBC report on Sudanese sentiments following the coup, with Suleima Elkhalifa, who headed a unit in the transitional government tasked with protecting women and children from violence, saying:  "people are more determined now. And more politically aware. After 30 years of military dictatorship, we will not submit. The youth represent more than 50% of this country and it's clear we don't want this government. They cannot kill us all. They cannot kill this dream”.

Victims of the military clampdown at Khartoum’s Royal Care hospital, including an 18-year-old student shot in the leg, expressed the same determination.

Former BBC journalist Mohanad Hashim said the Tamkeen Committee - created to seize economic assets stolen by powerful figures in the old regime – caused unease among the military as it was “tracing various cases from gold smuggling to currency sales and commissions, all indicating high levels of corruption among high-ranking officers”.
