Tens of thousands of Sudanese defied gunfire and tear gas in nationwide demonstrations against the military coup of the 25th of October.

According to the Central Committee of Sudanese Doctors (CCSD), five protesters were killed. Four of them were killed with live bullets, and the other suffocating due to tear gas.

The protests took place in Khartoum, Kassala in eastern Sudan, Al-Jazeera state, and the Darfur region, where an unknown number of protesters were reportedly killed, al-Shimaliyah state and the River Nile state.

CCSD said that many others were wounded, and that the chaos in the streets prevented many from reaching hospitals.
