The authorities preempted it by closing a number of bridges linking the capital's triangular cities (Khartoum, Bahri, and Omdurman) and deploying hundreds of soldiers and armored vehicles at the main entrances. The resistance committees demand that the army withdraw from power and return to the barracks, and the formation of a civilian government, and reject any negotiation or partnership that gives the military legitimacy to continue in power.
