The Central Committee of Sudanese Doctors (CCSD) announced that one person was killed and 78 others injured during the demonstrations held on Wednesday in the Sudanese capital Khartoum and other cities. 

In a statement, the committee said that it had recorded 78 injuries, including six from live bullets. 

CCSD added that the deceased had a bullet wound in his back and accused the security forces of his death. This brings the death toll since the protests began on 25 October to 94. 

Protesters had taken to the streets to demand "full civilian rule" as part of an ongoing protest movement under the slogan the "April earthquake."

Wednesday marked three years since Sudan witnessed its largest modern-day protests against the regime of President Omar Al-Bashir who was ousted in April 2019. 

Sudan has experienced political turmoil since 25 October when army chief, Abdul Fattah Al-Burhan, staged a coup and placed Prime Minister Abdallah Hamdok under house arrest.

Following mass protests, Al-Burhan reached a deal with Hamdok in November that reinstated him as prime minister. However, popular protests continued with some demonstrators saying that his reinstatement was helping legitimize the military takeover.

In early January, Hamdok resigned, while Al-Burhan said he will only step down to hand over power to an elected body.
