6:02 pm

6:03 pm
care hospital the sedan doctors committee says the death toll is difficult to count and can only rise but the army is meeting determined organize resistance the opposition and thrown up their own roadblocks in response stringing stones and burning tires across the city. but after the dispersal of the sit in we went back to the streets and squares and thank god with the help of the youth we closed the street and we will close everything again god willing. a day of violence by the army may have broken up the protests to sit in that it seems to have simply dispersed the resistance throughout khartoum. and i'm now joined by far from arabic to for a good to see you i mean. only were in sudan give us a sense of what's happening right now in the country i mean what we saw in the
6:04 pm
report or these shows what's going on what i've been talking to different activists on the ground to protesters on the ground and actually to knowledge there was in front of the headquarters of the military you had a sit in area today they all had to leave it force we had to leave it even some deaths as we already heard in the report and they told me from now on hold sudan will be a city an area it's changed it changed everything now what's happening to in sudan to this day mourning because the people are not really angry or really this is exactly the moment they didn't want to reach where the military council is using violence against them although they see it at their own right to be there at the city in area because they want and hand over from libya to reconstitute to a civilian council so people are angry people are are really frustrated people say there is no way a return to what where we are now because they don't want again military ruling for 30 years the way it was before and that's why it's
6:05 pm
a turning point either now or never ok either now or never but i mean help us help us understand why this happened at this particular juncture because of course you've got the civilian protesters who you met most of them very young people they were in dialogue with this transitional military government yes so what prompted this crackdown where did the breakdown happen in dialogue when you talk to the protests to stay say from the beginning they had to kind of trust the military council but also mistrust because if you look to the neighbor countries to egypt to what happened there when the military said we are supporting and we are the voice of the people and then they took over the power so they said this would happen one day but to no other military said no it's not going to happen but today their masks full dahlan and everything was clear that they are they have a big interest in power and you know today is the last day of ramadan. and there's also not a coincidence that they waited to to this day was that ramadan is now over and then
6:06 pm
they did what they do and decide that it's the mosque that's falling it's the military ruling they have their own interests they have been getting also power and support from the regional power from saudi arabia from the from u.a.e. and now people also connect to the visits that some of them had to bear to these countries and with the decision they're taking today but if you look at it i don't think it will they will be able to go on the way they did today because the protesters are really insisting and persisting on continuing their protest because they know if they let it go now they did nothing the last months but of course the question is how many people are going to be willing to take the bullet i think when a bit of frustration is really big you have a lot of corruption and part of the corruption according to different organizations is the military itself you have you have people who who are don't have anything and now they say what else do we lose and they are seeing that even people even
6:07 pm
children are being attacked so it's a very emotional thing if you are still very emotional to get and make change because they know we have to do it could we see the country spiral into violence because you know when you say the military has dropped its mask if you're basically saying they've made a couple of concessions but they're not going to hand over power i think for the next days there would be no hand over even for the next weeks because now it was to no it was peaceful and now it's getting too violent and so there is no back to go back peacefully because even the people you we also have to mention when you talk to these people sudan and this and the war they had a civil war they had people are armed part of the population to now everyone is saying no we have to continue peacefully but the question how long will they continue peacefully because within so that. and you have even different interests and now they they can be united against the one military and it will go on i don't
