KHARTOUM (Reuters) - One person was shot dead on Monday when Sudanese security forces fired live rounds and teargas during protests against military rule that attracted tens of thousands of people, medics said.

Such protests, along with barricades throughout the capital and a general strike last week, have continued since the military took power on Oct. 25, ending a partnership with civilian political parties since the removal of Omar al-Bashir as Sudan's ruler in 2019.
