Thousands of protesters staged rallies in Sudan on Saturday to demand the handover of power to civilians.
Protesters raised banners calling for full civilian rule, amid chants against the military, according to an Anadolu Agency reporter on the ground.
Similar protesters were reported in the cities of Atbara, Port Sudan, Medani, Nyala and Elobied.
Eyewitnesses said Sudanese police used tear gas canisters and stun bombs to disperse protesters in Khartoum.
There were no reports of injuries.
Ahmed Abul Raheem, a protester, said thousands of demonstrators have reached the area near the presidential palace in Khartoum.
“We aim to stage a sit-in in front of the presidential palace, no matter the cost is,” Abul Raheem told Anadolu Agency.
“We are ready for any sacrifices to bring down this military regime” he said.
