CAIRO — Sudanese pro-democracy activists said the country's security forces fired tear gas Thursday at hundreds of protesters in the capital Khartoum. The group said they were supportive of Sudan's pro-democracy movement. The group posted on its official Facebook page pictures of protesters wearing masks and others being rescued. Videos showing protesters running in side streets were circulated online. The sound of what appears to be tear gas firing can be heard in one of the videos.
