KHARTOUM - Sudan’s ruling military council on Friday promised the country would have a new civilian government, a day after the armed forces overthrew President Omar al-Bashir, but the proposal was immediately rejected by the main protest group.
But the main protest group rejected the proposal, saying the military council was “not capable of creating change”.

Earlier on Friday, thousands of demonstrators camped outside the defense ministry to push for a civilian government, defying a curfew and calling for mass Friday prayers. Bashir, 75, had faced 16 weeks of demonstrations sparked by rising food costs, high unemployment and growing repression during his three decades of autocratic rule.World powers, including the United States and Britain, said they supported a peaceful and democratic transition sooner than two years. China said it would continue to seek cooperation with Sudan regardless of the political situation.
