BBC World Service - Newshour, New Sudan leader promises civilian-led government

Protesters in Sudan win more concessions from the new military government.

Representatives of protesters in Sudan have met military leaders in the capital Khartoum. The country's new leader Abdel Fattah Abdelrahman Burhan has  promised that Sudan will soon be led by a civilian government after the ousting of Omar al-Bashir.

Also in the programme: We mark the centenary of the Amritsar massacre when British troops killed hundreds of unarmed civilians. And the world’s largest aircraft has made its maiden flight in California.
