at the heart of the european union in brussels we have 28 different realities and so i think people are really looking for any journalist they can trust for them to make sense of this. i work at the w. this news africa coming up in the next 15 minutes sudan's protesters are under attack the army has fired on the come outside the military headquarters. and the death toll is rising by the demonstrators are defiant and say they'll keep up the fight for the country's transition to civilian rule. after the dispersal of the 6 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. and

a project that's trying to raise funds to support the young woman who want to join the cycling world ghana stress professional female cyclist i set up the repairs shop where they can get the out on truck. i am eddie michael jr welcome to the program it's great to have you with us after months of restraint this is a nice house hit back against protesters outside the military headquarters in security forces stormed the calm on monday morning in the west violence to hit the country since the overthrow of longtime president bashir in april. long feared violent escalation has ingolf khartoum. police. an army chased

demonstrators through the streets. gunfire and explosions have shocked at their protests breaking out the peaceful sit in. party even as they flee the bullets the protesters mock the army and repeat their demands for change. freedom peace and justice civilian rule this month chant these protestors. others and circled by the troops plead with the military to hold their fire. peacefully peacefully they shout. but since the early morning sudan's capital has been anything but peaceful. protest leaders have stopped cooperation with the transitional military council calling the crackdown a bloody massacre and said i cannot even evacuate the bodies are they said they are calling them martyrs. hundreds of the injured are being treated in cartoons row

care hospital the sudan doctors committee says the death toll is difficult to count and can only rise but the army is meeting determined organize resistance the opposition are throwing up their own roadblocks in response stringing stones and burning tires across the city. but after the dispersal of the city we went back to the streets and squares and thank god with the help of the youth we closed the street and we were close everything again god willing. a day of violence by the army may have broken up the protest a sit in that it seems to have simply dispersed the resistance throughout khartoum . joining me now is michael league i just returned from sudan from the country. and is in close contact with activists who are monitoring the situation thank you very much for your time now for a long. time destruction was fairly calm until this sudden escalation what are your

sources telling you so they're telling me that this morning at about 5 am today monday some forces which appeared to be rapid support forces stormed the sit in and started violently dispersing the protesters there my source on the ground was one of one of hundreds gathered around the main clinic at the sit in the heart of hearts to him he said that they had to run away as fast as they could because 1st they started with tear gas and then started with live ammunition and now he and this group is. now hiding in one of the main hospitals in the surrounding area of this it and as you said there have been weeks of relative calm i wouldn't say complete calm because there have been other more sporadic attempts to disperse the sit in and attack the barricades that surround the sit in area none have been as violent as what we've seen today which was a full scale attempt to completely disperse the sit in so i guess the question is why now when you were there the military seemed you know quite taller and taller

and so for the protest this why i talk now i mean the military has says a lot of things in public but then what happened on the ground seems to contradict that greatly and there are number of reasons for this there's there's there are some there's some speculation that the military council is actually not acting in complete unison because you have the head of the military transitional council but han and the deputy. have that you is the head of the right that support forces and the rapid support forces according to eyewitnesses on the ground are the forces that are involved in attacking protesters of the sit in air this is what i would say and just a little bit of by going to the right that support for since this is the paramilitary group that operates under the sudanese military times but also sometimes is subject to the authority of the national security authority they have some of their roots go back to the judge and we've militia which have been which are accused of committing a true across cities in in darfur the genocide in. for which is responsible for the

death of hundreds and hundreds of thousands and there is an opinion out there that they might not necessarily be on the side of a peaceful transition to civilians because then that would eventually lead to a situation where they would have to be implicated for their crimes talk about transition as well saddam's a position and put his group iran says it is halting all contacts on negotiations with the country's military council now is there any hope now for that peaceful transition be so dearly want think it's early to say where the if negotiations will continue of course today the wind is very fresh still the protesters that i've spoken to feel extremely betrayed they were sitting you know some of them sleeping this is the holy month of ramadan the hour at which they were attacked is an hour of speech rather spirituality the sun the sun rise hour so it's early to say but for now that's what the forces are saying that they will help negotiations i think if negotiations are hosted completely and we come at a complete stand still we would be. we would not know what the next steps would be

but one would hope that somehow the parties are able to come back to the negotiating table just to avoid the shedding of a more blood on the streets of sydney i guess only time will tell i over him thank you very much. and today is well bicycle day so where better to talk than my home country got off that's a project that's trying to raise funds to support young women who want to join professional cycling world they are hoping they can be the game changes in growing the sports. for them life is big hills these girls preparing for today's train station. leading the 15 year old may be. many of the guilds. aged between 18 and 17 years old parts of the cycling program in ghana which recruits young girls to
