Funcionarios detenidos en golpe militar en Sudán

October 25, 2021 - El ejército de Sudán tomó el poder este lunes, disolviendo al gobierno de transición horas después de que las tropas arrestaron al primer ministro interino y a otros funcionarios. Miles de personas tomaron las calles para protestar contra el golpe que amenaza el tambaleante progreso del país hacia la democracia.

The takeover comes more than two years after protesters forced the ouster of longtime autocrat Omar al-Bashir and just weeks before the military was expected to hand the leadership of the council that runs the country over to civilians.

After the early morning arrests of Prime Minister Abdalla Hamdok and other officials, thousands poured into the streets of the capital, Khartoum, and its twin city of Omdurman. Footage shared online appeared to show protesters blocking streets and setting fire to tyres as security forces used tear gas to disperse them.

In the afternoon, the head of the military, Gen. Abdel-Fattah Burhan, announced on national TV that he was dissolving the government and the Sovereign Council, a joint military and civilian body created four months after al-Bashir’s ouster to run the country.
