Support Democracy to Build Peace - Sudanese People
Hundreds of civilians have died across Sudan, with many thousands injured since the spreading armed conflict between two competing military forces - the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) - began on April 15, 2023.
AllAfrica's Nontobeko Mlambo met with Sudanese scholar Mahder Habtemariam Serekberhan in Kenya's capital Nairobi. Serekberhan is working on her PhD degree in political science at Syracuse University in the United States. In her research, including for her Masters' degree in PanAfrican Studies, she explored the 2019 pro-democracy uprising in Sudan and the fundamental role of women in liberation struggles.
By telephone from Nairobi, Mlambo also talked to a Sudanese protester, a member of one of the many neighborhood and professional committees, such as doctors, lawyers and students, that organised and coordinated the opposition to military takeover. Munir Biram is a member of the Burri Resistance Committee in the middle-class neighborhood of Burri in Khartoum, Sudan's capital.
The Beit Al Mal resistance committee tweet says, in part: "We are here to stay. The Sudanese people are fully aware of the devastation you have committed and know your misfortunes, and they saw with their own eyes the devastation, destruction and war that you ignited." The group is in Omdurman, separated by the river from Khartoum.
