Sudan rally
In Sudan, thousands of demonstrators are rallying in the capital Khartoum to protest against the military coup and demand a civilian rule. The demonstrators are converging on the presidential palace in the capital. They are also marching on the streets of Madani, a town south of Khartoum. Security forces there are firing tear gas to disperse the protesters. Sudan’s military leadership has deployed forces across the capital Khartoum ahead of mass protests. Authorities also cut the internet and telephone lines. The African country has witnessed protests since the military takeover on October 25 and the arrest of civilian leaders. The rallies are staged despite the re-instatement of Prime Minister Abdulla Hamdok who was ousted in the coup. Dozens of people have been killed and scores wounded since then.

Saudi Arabia says 2 people were killed in the attack, adding that it is preparing for a large-scale military operation.
