Sudan's coup leader Abdel Fattah al-Burhan has named a new ruling council with himself as the leader following the military takeover last month.
Gen Burhan retained his deputy Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, alias Hemeti, as well as other senior military leaders to the positions they held before the 25 October coup.
The 14-member transitional council also includes civilians but none from the political coalition that was in power before the coup.
The UN’s envoy in Sudan Volker Perthes says the army’s chief’s unilateral appointment council makes it increasingly difficult for the country to return to constitutional order.
