KHARTOUM (Reuters) -Opponents of the coup in Sudan vowed on Thursday to step up their protests after 15 civilians were reported killed in the deadliest day yet since last month's takeover, risking more confrontation as the junta shows no sign of backing down.
More than three weeks since General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan derailed Sudan's transition towards civilian rule, pro-democracy activists are facing an increasingly dangerous struggle in the streets. The deaths on Wednesday, tallied by medics aligned with the protest movement, bring the toll since the Oct. 25 coup to at least 39.
