Huge crowds of protesters on Thursday thronged the Sudanese capital Khartoum a week after the army's ouster of president Omar al-Bashir, determined to complete their revolution seeking civilian rule.

Roads leading to a sit-in outside the army headquarters were filled with demonstrators as people converged on the site chanting "power to civilians, power to civilians" and "freedom, peace, justice".
