Sudanese celebrate uprising anniversary on board train to Atbara In the Sudanese town of Atbara, the cradle of the revolt, a crowd of thousands turn out to greet trains arriving from Khartoum carrying cheering people celebrating the first anniversary of the uprising that toppled veteran autocrat Omar al-Bashir. Organised by the transitional government and the protest movement, it is a tribute to the many demonstrators who travelled in the opposite direction to the capital at key moments during the uprising.
