#SudanUprising : sector by sector, a general strike in Sudan is taking place. The TMC can't stop this, even as the economic pressure will become excruciating. The decision by the Council not to accept civilian executive power will become more and more difficult to maintain.

Here is first international reporting on today's demonstrations in #Sudan ; police have been as brutal as al-Bashir urged them to be. Some wounded/killed; many fleeing heavy use of tear gas. The ruthless thinking of the al-Bashir regime is unchanged. #SudanProtests #SudanUprising

#SudanUprising : With extraordinary courage, the uprising continues... Int'l support--including warning the #TMC about renewed violence--are urgently necessary as the uprising re-constitutes itself. #Hemeti and his #RSF must be warned explicitly and directly.

Concerning the new type of canister being fired against demonstrators: below one plausible account of what it is. This would make clear that special operations units are now deployed on the ground at various locations in #Sudan . The warning to protesters should be taken seriously

Hamdan Dagalo (“ #Hemeti ”) is at once deputy head of the ruling Sovereign Council and head of the Rapid Support Forces ( #RSF ), which for years have committed the most serious atrocity crimes in #Darfur . Security can never come to the region so long as Hemeti serves in both roles.
