Protests first erupted in Sudan in December after a government decision to triple the price of bread. But they quickly morphed into nationwide demonstrations against Bashir's three-decade rule.
Sudan’s army deployed around its Khartoum headquarters Monday as thousands of protesters urging the military to join calls for leader Omar al-Bashir’s resignation defied tear gas to demonstrate for a third day, witnesses said.
Witnesses said soldiers were putting up barricades in streets near the compound after NISS personnel and police failed to dislodge the demonstrators. “I stepped out on my balcony hearing the sound of the gas canisters and could feel the gas in the air,” said one resident.Protest organisers urged the residents of Khartoum and nearby areas to join the demonstrators who have been on the streets for three days straight.
Chanting anti-government slogans, protesters have been urging the military to back them in demanding Bashir’s resignation. Sudan’s security council on Sunday said the demands of the protesters “have to be heard” after a meeting chaired by the veteran leader. In recent weeks the scale and intensity of protests had dwindled due to a state of emergency imposed by Bashir, but Saturday saw a resurgence as thousands headed to the army headquarters.
