13/7/19: Multiple sources - Sudan activists call for ‘justice’ on the 40 day anniversary of the June 3 massacre
Tens of thousands of Sudanese flooded the streets of Khartoum and other cities to mark the 40th day since the June 3 massacre, in The “Justice First” marches called by the Sudanese Professionals’ Association.
Tawasol Noury told the Guardian that she had marched to remind both Sudan’s military rulers and the leadership of the pro-democracy movement “about the blood of the martyrs,” adding that “we don’t want the Declaration of Freedom and Change to forget so we are here to remind them that justice for the martyrs hasn’t come yet.”
Reuters witnessed 6 ehicles belonging to the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF), each carrying about six men armed with assault rifles and sticks, driving as protesters chanted “Civilian!” at them.
In Burri, they chanted “Blood for blood, even if (we get) civilian rule!”
