Sudan on Fire as president Omar al-Bashir remains dogged

Hundreds of demonstrators are gathering in different Sudanese cities, protesting against autocratic President Omar al-Bashir.

Tuesday’s demonstrations were called by the Sudanese Professionals Association, an umbrella of independent professional unions.

Video footage shows demonstrators gathering at intersections chanting “just fall”, and calling for a “people’s revolution”.

The current wave of protests began on December 19, initially over surging prices and a failing economy, but quickly shifted to calls for an end to al-Bashir’s three-decade rule.

Activists say at least fifty-seven people have been killed in the protests. The government’s latest tally stands at thirty killed, but figures have not been updated in days.
