The current unrest in Sudan began in December 2018, when Sudan's people began protesting against Omar al-Bashir's 30-year tyrannical rule. After his resignation (following months of pro-democracy protests against him) on April 11, 2019, the military took over and has been in control since then. Since then, the country has been torn apart by a conflict between pro-democracy civilians and the military. Representatives of the pro-democracy movement began discussions with the military over who would take over when al-Bashir was ousted. These talks broke down last Monday. The military then reportedly killed dozens and wounded hundreds of protesters during a crackdown on a protest camp, described by Al Jazeera as the "worst violence" in the country since al-Bashir's overthrow. According to the United Nations, the death toll in the country currently stands at more than 100 dead, including 19 children. At least 700 people have been injured. Militia members
