Sudanese security forces, armed force and polices forces have been placed on high alert on Monday ahead of mass protests by rival groups on the first anniversary of a million march of 2019 which obliged Sudan’s military council to sit for table of talks with Forces of Freedom and Change FFC .
Khartoum Today reporter said that army trucks closed all vital access to down town and bridges and spread out along the key buildings .
Activists have called for demonstrations on June 30 to pile pressure on the transitional government to implement “goals of the revolution” that ousted long-serving President Omar al-Bashir last year.
Protesters demand a reform of the security agencies, forming a transitional parliament and appointing civilian governors of the state instead of the current military governors.
They also call for announcing the results of an investigation into last year’s violent dispersal of a protest sit-in near the army headquarters in Khartoum, which left scores dead.
Supporters of al-Bashir’s former ruling party have also called for demonstrations on June 30 to bring down the transitional government.
Last year, mass protests by opposition activists forced the military to negotiate a power-sharing deal with civilians. The agreement was signed in July 2019.
The governor of Khartoum state, Youssef Adam, said that the authorities have information about plans by protesters to turn the demonstrations into chaos.
