Sudanese protest leaders are expected to unveil on Sunday a civilian council that they want to take power from the army rulers, who have resisted calls to step down despite mass demonstrations.

Thousands of protesters gathered outside the army headquarters in central Khartoum ahead of the announcement, an AFP correspondent reported, a day after the two sides pledged to hold more talks.
