A Sudanese army major and a protester were shot dead at a Khartoum sit-in, hours after protest leaders and the ruling generals reached a breakthrough agreement on transitional authorities to run the country
Sudanese protesters gather during a demonstration in the capital Khartoum on May 13, 2019. Sudan's army rulers and protest leaders resumed crucial talks today over handing power to a civilian administration after a deadlock in negotiations, as angry demonstrators blocked a major avenue along the Nile River.
A protester too was killed at the sit-in after he was shot in the chest, a doctors' committee linked to the protest movement said. "At today's meeting we agreed on the structure of the authorities and their powers," Taha Osman, a spokesman for the protest movement, told AFP."Tomorrow the talks will continue to discuss the period of transition and the composition of the authorities."
The generals have proposed that the new council be military led, while the protest leaders want a majority civilian body.
