The nation’s new ruling military council announced Sunday that it will name a civilian prime minister and Cabinet but not a president to help govern the country following the coup that removed longtime leader Omar al-Bashir.

An army spokesman, Lt. Gen. Shamseldin Kibashi, also said in televised remarks that the military had begun to overhaul security organizati­ons and would not break up demonstrat­ions that have continued outside the military headquarte­rs since Thursday’s coup.

The statement came after a second day of meetings between the army and organizers of the months of escalating street protests that led to al-Bashir’s ouster.
