Sudan on Thursday evening restored limited internet services three weeks after it switched off internet in the country.

Telecom operators were authorised to turn on limited services, offering a partial respite to locals who had been in the dark since October 25 when the military seized power and dissolved the transitional government of Prime Minister Abdallah Hamdok.
