Sudanese military and security agents have continued to arrest civilians including civilian authorities, political activists, human rights defenders, members of resistance committees and others as mass protests and civil disobedience campaigns against the coup continue.

Sudanese staged protests against the 25th October coup in several parts across the country in response to a call for civil disobedience by the Sudanese Professional Association (SPA).

Pro-democracy protesters took to the street in Khartoum, Madani, Atbara, Nyala and the White Nile despite the internet cuts.

Calls for a general strike on 7 and 8 November have been generally successful. The SPA plans to gradually intensify calls for protests and general strikes in order to force the military to hand back power to a civilian government.
