Sudanese protesters gathered once more. Friday, and security forces fired tear gas at them, a day after a tens of thousands-strong protest was met with the deadliest violence this year.
Hundreds of activists gathered near the presidential palace in Khartoum after at least nine people were killed during protests against a military takeover led by army chief Abdel Fattah al-Burhan last October.
“The people want to bring down Burhan,” some protesters chanted while others, carrying photos of people killed in months of protest-related violence, yelled: “We call for retribution!”
