Sudanese stand on a road blocked by security forces during a demonstration demanding the ruling military hand over to civilians in Khartoum, Sudan, June 30, 2019. In the biggest demonstrations since a deadly raid by security forces on a protest camp in central Khartoum three weeks ago, tens of thousands of residents took to the streets in several parts of the Sudanese capital. In two areas near the presidential palace and in the upscale eastern neighbourhood of Riyadh, they were met by security forces firing barrages of tear gas, witnesses said. Opposition groups kept up those demonstrations as they pressed the military to hand over power to civilians. Protesters waved the Sudanese flag and chanted “civilian, civilian” and “blood for blood,” as Sudan beefed up security across the capital.
