notes: On 17 August 2020, thousands of protesters marched in the Greater Khartoum area (three events recorded in Khartoum, Khartoum North and Omdurman) as part of Resistance Committee-organized protests decrying the trajectory of the revolution, and the failure of the FFC and military wings of the transitional government to fully implement the agreement signed one year ago. The demonstrators also called for a restructuring of the FFC, and for the security forces to relinquish control of businesses. Police and unknown men in civilian attire attacked protesters with batons and tear gas, wounding an unspecified number, and arresting 77. The newly rebranded intelligence forces have denied their agents were the men in civilian attire. [size=thousands]
