Sudanese security forces have killed a protester in the capital Khartoum during a demonstration calling for civilian rule, almost three months after a military coup, medics say.
The protester, who has not yet been identified, was “directly hit by a live bullet to the chest,” the Central Committee of Sudan Doctors says.
The latest death brings to 74 the number of protesters killed in a crackdown on anti-coup demonstrations, the medics say.
