Nigeria, AU, UN and others have condemned the coup in Sudan.

on Monday, arresting Prime Minister Abdallah Hamdok and other top civilian leaders before dissolving the government, has pushed thousands of protesters to the streets of the capital Khartoum.

The spread of the demonstration unnerved the military, and troops fire has killed seven people and wounded at least 140 others, a Sudanese health ministry official told Reuters. Mr al-Bashir’s ouster, triggered by the increase in the cost of bread and general economic stagnancy, had offered hopes for the Sudanese people.

Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, the lieutenant general who heads the joint civilian-military Sovereignty Council overseeing those that had been governing the country, told a news conference on Monday that a new government would lead the country until elections in July 2023.“What the country is going through represents a threat,” he said.

Mr Hamdok was taken to an unknown location after he refused to “endorse the coup” by releasing a “pro-coup statement,” Sudan’s information ministry said. “on all actors who are disrupting Sudan’s transition to stand down, and allow the civilian-led transitional government to continue its important work to achieve the goals of the revolution.”
