Sudan blocks internet access nationwide as activists mark the first anniversary of a coup that derailed the transition to civilian rule
Cut off from such aid, Sudan – already one of the world's poorest countries – has plunged into a worsening economic crisis.
A year ago to the day, army chief Abdel Fattah al Burhan seized power and arrested the civilian leaders with whom he had agreed to share power in 2019, when mass protests compelled the army to depose one of its own, long-time ruler Omar al Bashir. Ahead of planned rallies on Tuesday, protesters insisted that "the revolution continues", and called for the creation of "a politically and economically-free Sudan, a civil democratic Sudan."The authorities in Khartoum ordered all public institutions, schools, and businesses shut on Tuesday, as security forces deployed heavily throughout the city, blocking roads and bridges.
