3/6/19: AP – Sudan’s military council blames “criminals” for Monday violence

 AP reports that Sudan’s ruling military council has blamed “criminals” who sought refuge inside a protester sit-in for the violent clashes in the country’s capital of Khartoum.

 The council said Monday that security forces were trying to clear an area adjacent to the protester camp, when those it was chasing fled into the sit-in, leading to shooting deaths and injuries.
