The Central Committee of Sudanese doctors say seven civilians have been killed by security forces. UN Security Council members urged utmost restraint.
Sudanese security forces on Monday have been accused of killing at
least seven people during anti-coup protests in the capital Khartoum.
An advocacy group, the Central Committee of Sudan Doctors, CCSD,
said in a statement that seven civilians were killed by the live
ammunition of security forces during the anti-coup peaceful protests.
The clash increased the number killed since the October coup to 71.
The CCSD said that around 100 people had also been wounded as a
result of the actions of security personnel.
The turmoil appears to have been compounded by Prime Minister
Abdalla Hamdok’s resignation earlier this month.
