KHARTOUM - Eleven people were killed in the Sudanese capital Khartoum on Tuesday, including six members of “state forces”, the government’s spokesman said on Wednesday, as protesters pushed for an end to President Omar al-Bashir’s 30-year rule.
The government spokesman and Information Minister Hassan Ismail said the Khartoum state police chief had delivered a report stating that 11 people had died in “incidents yesterday , including six members of the regular forces”. He gave no further details on how they died. “The service calls on honorable citizens to be careful of attempts to drag the country toward a complete security breakdown,” the statement said.
