Sudan Doctors Committee said in a statement on Saturday that as many as 16 people were killed on Wednesday as security forces dispersed protests in Khartoum and other cities with gunfire and teargas.
According to the committee, 40 people have been killed in Sudan since the beginning of the protests against last month’s military coup, Sudanese "Bajnews" said on Saturday.
