Tensions remain high in Sudan after a military coup on Monday. Prime Minister Hamdock was brought home late Tuesday, after a day of intense international pressure following his removal.

At least 10 people have been killed by security forces but protests against military rule are continuing throughout the country. One area where resistance has been very active is in Omdurman, a city close to the capital, Khartoum, where one citizen activist, Mohammed, explained how the protesters are organising themselves.

"We have a strategy - it's called the coup strategy - [for] what we should do if any coup happens. No one should go to work, no one should do anything until this matter is settled. So what happened after this coup is we executed the instruction... blockades every 10 metres, so in a matter of three or four hours the whole city was shut down."

"We have these instructions: don't get engaged with the military forces. If they shoot, you withdraw into the neighbourhood. When it's dark, if the military come, all the people in the house will shut down their lights so in a matters of minutes whole neighbourhoods turn dark... so they don't know how many they are dealing with."
