"In light of the emergence of a more tranquil environment for a fruitful dialogue to create stability for the period of transition, the head of the transitional Sovereign Council, Abdel Fattah Burhan, issued today a decree on lifting the state of emergency in all parts of the country," the council said in a statement obtained by Sputnik.
On October 25, the Sudanese military, led by the general, overthrew the Sudanese government in a military coup, declaring a state of emergency and establishing the Sudanese transitional sovereign council under his leadership. Subsequent protests forced Burhan to sign a pact stipulating the reinstatement of Prime Minister Abdalla Hamdok, releasing all political prisoners, holding elections in July 2023 and handing power to an elected civilian government.
