Following the military coup in Sudan, people have been on the streets since October 2021, and despite the violent crackdown on protesters by the Sudanese military, they have insisted on standing up, resisting and taking to the streets until their demands are met.
While Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, chairman of Sudan's governing council, has announced that the military is committed to holding elections in mid-2023, the Sudanese people are urging an immediate end to the military presence in power to form a democratic government.
Sudanese security forces fired tear gas as protesters rallied against the October 25 military takeover led by army chief General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan.
After the military coup (October 2021) in Sudan faced opposition from the people of this country; Abdel Fattah al-Burhan and Abdalla Hamdok, on November 21, 2021 signed a political agreement to return Hamdok to power which like the military coup in Sudan, met with widespread opposition.
