A coup d'état overthrew President Omar al-Bashir and his three-decade authoritarian regime in Sudan on 11 April 2019, after months of widespread popular protests demanding his departure. Led by Defense Minister Lieutenant General Ahmed Awad Ibn Auf, the high command of the Sudanese Armed Forces dissolved the National Legislature, suspended the constitution, and declared a three-month state of emergency, before ultimately agreeing to a power-sharing arrangement with civilian forces that paved the way for a transitional government.
