SUDAN: PROSPECT OF VIOLENCE RISES AS OPPOSITION LAUNCHES CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE CAMPAIGN

   Mon, 27 May 2019

As negotiations on the political transition continue to falter, opposition forces will renew its civil disobedience campaign, including a general strike and mass demonstrations. Hard-line paramilitary forces that control the post-coup junta are likely to respond with heavy-handed force at home, while seeking financial lifelines and diplomatic cover from regional allies. The prospect of violence in Khartoum and other cities will rise in coming weeks.
