Sudanese Prime Minister Abdalla Hamdok returned home today Tuesday October 26th, a day after he was detained as the army seized power in a coup that has claimed at least seven lives. Follow the day’s development as they happened.
The release of Prime Minister Abdallah Hamdok and his wife followed international condemnation of the coup and calls for the military to release all the government officials who were detained when Gen. Abdel-Fattah Burhan seized power on Monday.
Burhan had said earlier Tuesday that Hamdok had been held for his own safety and would be released. But he warned that other members of the dissolved government could face trial as protests against the putsch continued in the streets.

This comes after the military seized power Monday in a move that was widely denounced abroad. On Tuesday, pro-democracy demonstrators blocked roads in the capital of Khartoum with makeshift barricades and burning tires.
In his second public appearance since seizing power, Burhan said Tuesday the military had been forced to step in to resolve a growing political crisis.
“There were people who were talking about discriminating against others, and that was driving this country to reach a civil war that would lead to the fragmentation of this country, tearing apart its unity, its fabric and society. These dangers were in front of us,” Burhan told a televised news conference.
The coup came less than a month before Burhan was supposed to hand the leadership of the Sovereign Council that runs the country to a civilian — a step that would have decreased the military’s hold on power.

‘Hope for condemnation’ of coup at UN Security Council
“The hope is that this meeting will lead to a joint condemnation of the military coup,” said FRANCE 24’s New York correspondent Jessica Le Masurier, who is at the UN. “The UK is the penholder on Sudan and is working on a statement. But it’s working with China and Russia. In the past, these two powers have blocked statements on Sudan.”

EU threatens sanctions
The European Union threatened Tuesday to suspend financial support for Sudan if the military does not immediately return the civilian government to power.
“This attempt to undermine Sudan’s transition to democracy is unacceptable. If the situation is not reversed immediately, there will be serious consequences for the EU’s commitment, including its financial support,” EU diplomatic chief Josep Borrell warned in a statement.
The EU could also impose targeted sanctions against those behind the coup, notably Sudan’s top general Abdel Fattah al-Burhan whose junta is accused of detaining Prime Minister Abdalla Hamdok.

Sudan coup is ‘not the African way’, Malawi’s president says
In an interview with FRANCE 24, Lazarus Chakwera, the president of Malawi and chairperson of the Southern African Development Community (SADC), condemned Monday’s military coup in Sudan, stressing that this was “not the African way” to deal with differences. He regretted that such coups were back in fashion “in some parts” of the continent, but pointed to the recent elections in Zambia and in his country as examples of democratic progress.

UN chief calls for PM’s ‘immediate’ release
UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres called Tuesday for the immediate release of Sudan’s Prime Minister Abdalla Hamdok.
He “must be released immediately”, Guterres said as the UN Security Council held an emergency meeting on the putsch in Sudan.
On Monday soldiers detained Hamdok, his ministers and civilian members of Sudan’s ruling council, who have been heading a transition to full civilian rule following the 2019 overthrow of longtime autocrat Omar al-Bashir.

The office said that Hamdok remains “the executive authority recognised by the Sudanese people and the world”, the office said on its Facebook page.
It added that there was no alternative other than protests, strikes and civil disobedience.

Burhan ‘likely to be worried about money’
“There’s been little comment from General Burhan on how international bodies have reacted,” noted FRANCE 24 International Affairs Editor Angela Diffley. “The UN Security Council is of course meeting today, so there will be an occasion for more comments on what’s happened.”
Burhan “might not be so worried about comments” about the coup from the international community, Diffley continued, “but he is very likely to be worried about money; we saw there that the United States has already paused several million dollars’ worth of aid intended for energy and food sectors in Sudan”.
“It’s likely that other countries will do the same – and this Sudan is in a very difficult situation economically; just before inflation was running as high as 400 percent,” Diffley added. “There was a lot of disquiet about the government having to fund fuel subsidies that caused serious annoyance among the Sudanese people.
“It’s worth noting that Burhan said [the military] need the help of the Sudanese people, but it doesn’t look like the enormous number of people on the streets opposing the coup take that very seriously.”

Top general says PM is ‘at my home’
Sudan’s top general said on Tuesday that the country’s Prime Minister Abdalla Hamdok was “at my home” a day after his reported detention by soldiers during the coup.
“We arrested ministers and politicians, but not all” of them, Abdel Fattah al-Burhan told a news conference in Khartoum, adding that Hamdok was “in good health” and would “return home when the crisis is over”.

‘This African incident is not welcome at all’
Malawian President Lazarus Chakwena joined the chorus of world leaders condemning Monday’s military coup.
In an interview with FRANCE 24, Chakwena said it was “very unfortunate that such events are occurring” in this day and age. “There’s been coup attempts across the world, this African incident is not welcome at all because it’s not the manner in which Africans deal with issues when there is disagreement,” said Chakwena. “The African way is always dialogue. It’s always contact, it’s always to sit down and find solutions.”

Three Sudanese ambassadors in Europe announced their defection Tuesday, condemning the military coup in their country and declaring their embassies as belonging to the “Sudanese people”, the information ministry said.

Trade union committees dissolved, say reports
Sudan’s top general Abdel Fattah al-Burhan on Tuesday issued a decree dissolving the committees managing the country’s trade unions, according to Dubai-based TV channels Sky News Arabia and Al-Hadath.
The managing committees played a vital role in the 2019 protest movement, which led to the formation of a military-civilian transitional administration that was dissolved on Monday.

Russia warns against international ‘interference’ in Sudan
Russia has said that external interference could exacerbate the situation in Sudan following the military takeover.
As the international community has called for detained Prime Minister Hamdock and other Sudanese officials to be released, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov last week criticised the “shortcomings” of the transitional civilian government.
“Russia has a very different attitude from the US and other international players in this situation. The Russians have significant interests in Sudan,” explained FRANCE 24’s Nick Holdsworth, reporting from Moscow.
These include uranium, gold and oil mining and a naval logistics base on the Red Sea coast. The Russian private military Wagner Group have also reportedly been operating in the Sudan.Russia warns against international ‘interference’ in Sudan

Telecommunications down, internet services limited
Telecommunications were interrupted in Sudan a day after the country’s top general, Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, declared a state of emergency following Monday’s military takeover.
There was no official confirmation of the communications interruption. Internet and phone services inside the country were severely limited, according to activists.
Life is at a standstill in the capital Khartoum, where shops and services are closed and some roads are still blocked by the military after a mostly quiet night.

Protesters return to streets day after coup announcemen
Chanting “Returning to the past is not an option,” crowds began gathering on the streets of Khartoum a day after Sudan’s military seized power from a transitional government.
Seven people died of gunshot wounds while 140 were injured on Monday, according to a health ministry official.
Protests broke out shortly after Sudan’s top general, Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, announced the military takeover in a Monday morning televised address. The army had taken control “to rectify the revolution’s course”, said Burhan.
Soldiers detained Prime Minister Abdalla Hamdok, ministers in his government and civilian members of the ruling council, who have been heading a transition to full civilian rule following the April 2019 overthrow of autocrat Omar al-Bashir.
Internet services were cut across the country and roads into Khartoum were shut, before soldiers stormed the headquarters of the state broadcaster in the capital’s twin city of Omdurman.
“Civilian rule is the people’s choice,” chanted the demonstrators, who waved flags and used tyres to create burning barricades.
The information ministry said soldiers “fired live bullets on protesters … outside the army headquarters”.

Blinken ‘strongly’ condemns cou
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken “strongly” condemned the coup and called for the immediate return to civilian rule and the release of Sudanese Prime Minister Abdalla Hamdok, who was detained Monday.
“The United States strongly condemns the actions of the Sudanese military forces,” said Blinken said in a statement, as he expressed grave concern about reports that security forces used live ammunition against protesters.
“We firmly reject the dissolution of the civilian-led transitional government and its associated institutions and call for their immediate restoration,” Blinken said.

UN’s Guterres calls for Hamdok’s immediate release
UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres condemned the military’s takeover and urged the immediate release of Prime Minister Hamdok.
“I condemn the ongoing military coup in Sudan. Prime Minister Hamdok and all other officials must be released immediately,” Guterres tweeted.
The UN is expected to meet later Tuesday to discuss the crisis.
Sudanese General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan’s takeover announcement came after the armed forces detained the civilian leaders who have been heading the transition to full civilian rule following the April 2019 overthrow of autocrat Omar al-Bashir.
