Sudanese doctors are planning a nationwide strike today to demand higher wages, protection from security forces and better services at government hospitals, their association said.
The Federal Committee of Doctors said doctors at more than 350 government hospitals would stop work.
“From tomorrow doctors across all government hospitals will be on strike,” the committee said in a statement yesterday.
“They will attend only emergency cases.”
It said dozens of doctors had already stopped working at certain facilities in Khartoum.
An AFP correspondent saw several doctors at two government hospitals in Khartoum yesterday wearing badges saying “Doctors on strike”.
They said they were only dealing with emergency cases.
The committee said today’s strike was a protest at low wages, deteriorating services at government hospitals and a rise in attacks on doctors by security forces and relatives of patients.
