Death toll from government crackdown on Sudan protesters tops 60
Moscow - The death toll from the violent dispersal of the sit-in protest in Khartoum has reached 60 people, the opposition Central Committee of Sudan Doctors said on Wednesday.
"Ten more people died from bullets of soldiers of the Military Council ... Thus, the total number of those killed reached 60," the CCSD wrote on Facebook. The TMC, however, maintains that the security forces' operation was not aimed against peaceful protesters but was instead targeting criminals who infiltrated the ranks of demonstrators.
