A Sudanese protester was killed by security forces on Thursday during anti-coup demonstrations held across the country.
The death of the 28-year-old is the latest of the 90 people who have been killed since protests broke out against the country’s military rulers following the coup in October.
Protesters have remained undeterred despite heavy crackdown by the security forces.
On Thursday, thousands of demonstrators marching towards the presidential palace in the capital city Khartoum were met by gunfire and tear gas from security forces.
Several people were carried away bleeding, the Reuters news agency reported.
The protesters want the military to step down and to hand power over to a civilian government.
