  • Omar al-Bashir's ruthless 30-year rule over Sudan has ended as it began, with a coup.
  • The Sudanese army said al-Bashir was under house arrest and announced a 2 year transition period, to be presided over by the military.
  • Leaders of the protests that brought al-Bashir down are demanding a civilian transitional government, and vowing to keep up protests.

Sudan's National Defense Minister announced on Thursday that the country's army had seized power, forcing President Omar al-Bashir to step down and placing him under arrest with a number of key allies "at a safe location." While the end of al-Bashir's rule was welcomed by thousands of protesters who have taken to the streets for weeks demanding his ouster, they were quick to note that a new military dictatorship wasn't what they had in mind.
