Sudan: Two Years After the Start of the Revolution, a Contested Anniversary
Two years after the start of the Sudanese revolution, thousands of people took to the streets of Khartoum and other cities to express their frustration and anger. The anniversary, which was expected to be a celebration, turned into a protest against the transitional government for not implementing real reforms. The revolution, which began with protests against a sudden increase in bread prices, led to the fall of the autocratic president Omar el-Béchir. The country is now governed by a transitional government, including a civilian Prime Minister Abdallah Hamdok and a Sovereign Council composed of civilians and military officials, led by General Abdel Fattah al-Burhane.

Unveiling of Sudan’s sovereign council delayed
Sudan's expected formation of a sovereign council following the adoption of a transitional constitution was delayed with no announcement made on the designated day. Celebrations in Khartoum marked the signing of documents by generals and opposition leaders to govern the three-year transition to civilian rule. High-ranking foreign officials attended the ceremony, and international support was expressed by Britain and the United States. The sovereign council will consist of six civilians and five military nominees, with Abdalla Hamdok set to be appointed as prime minister. Challenges ahead include reviving the economy and managing deep distrust between the council's members. The omnipresence of General Mohamed Hamdan Daglo, whose forces are blamed for protest repression, causes unease among some opposition members.
