Sudan protests: 'We will never go back until we reach democracy'
Anti-coup protests took place across Sudan on Tuesday marking the first anniversary of the military coup.
Khartoum, the capital, had the largest amount of people out on the streets. At least one protester is known to have been killed with reports of the military opening fire on demonstrators.
Road closures and tear gas were also used by security forces to try and stop thousands of people marching towards the presidential palace in the capital.
Since the army chief Abdel Fatah al Burhan seized power there have been frequent anti-coup marches.
The security forces have been accused of killing more than 118 protesters in the past year.
One protester spoke to Newsday saying: "The Sudanese people started the revolution in December 2018, and they will not go back until we reach democracy".
