19/4/19: Reuters – More protesters flood Sudan’s sit-in to demand civilian rule , by Khalid Abdelaziz and Michael Georgy

Thousands of protesters demanding an end to military rule flocked to the sit-in outside Sudan’s Defence Ministry on Friday, in the biggest turnout in the center of the capital since last week when former President Omar Al Bashir was ousted and a military council took over.

 Protesters waved the Sudanese flag and chanted “freedom, peace and justice”. 

 The military council has said it is ready to meet some of the protesters’ demands, including fighting corruption, but has indicated that it would not hand over power to protest leaders.
