Media outlets report that the Sudanese military took over the country following a coup. Sudanese people have been protesting, and protesters have decided to confront military forces. General Abdel Fattah Burhan was the one that organized the coup and arrested several political leaders such as the Prime Minister, Abdalla Hamdock. The government has been dissolved, and the military called for a state of emergency.
After the coup, several countries, including the U.S, Norway, and the U.K, have already criticized the Sudanese army and asked for the release of the arrested civilians. The prime minister and other senior officials were arrested yesterday. The country has been going through many changes and turmoil over the years to become a fully entitled democratic country.
Sudanese people were not happy with the coup and took the streets of Khartoum to ask for the release of the politicians. The military forces opened fire, and reports mention that more than 80 people have been wounded and three killed. Protesters ask the military to stop the violence and warn that they will not give up and return to their homes.
According to Gen. Abdel-Fattah Burhan, the army intervened because the political situation was not favorable. The many altercation and fights between political factions have created tensions for the past weeks. The leader announced that a technocratic government would lead the country until the elections in July 2023. The Armed Forces are not planning to retreat, and Sudan will have a new constitution.
The U.S Secretary-General Antonio Guterres expressed his discontent and explained that this could destabilize Sudan, as the country is trying to transition to democracy. The former President of the republic of Chile and current U.N High Commissioner for Human Rights, Michele Bachelet, is afraid this might be a step back for the African country and asks the military forces to release the politicians and withdraw from the streets.
