Sixty people have been killed in a crackdown on pro-democracy protests in the Sudanese capital Khartoum, an opposition group says.

Members of a feared paramilitary group are reported to be roaming the streets attacking civilians.

Forces of the Transitional Military Council (TMC) opened fire on unarmed protesters on Monday  leading to the violence .

Internationale condemnation has trailed the attack.

An attempt at the UN Security Council to condemn the violence was blocked on Tuesday by China, backed by Russia.

Demonstrators had been occupying the square in front of the military headquarters since 6 April, days before President Omar al-Bashir was overthrown after 30 years in power.
