Newsday

Available for over a year

A coup is taking place in Sudan. Reports say most cabinet ministers in the transitional government, along with leaders of political parties, have been arrested. We have the latest. A former high ranking intelligence official from Saudi Arabia tells US TV that the country's de facto ruler -Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman - tried to have him killed. And another difficult week for Facebook as a former employee there gives evidence to a British parliamentary Committee.
