@Sundostund: The statements made by al-Burhan are so far from making sense that talking about a 'head of state' and 'deputy head of state' is crystalballing. If you take his statements literally, then the Sovereignty Council is still the collective head-of-state, but the civilians are mostly purged from it. I haven't checked these in detail, but that would mean that the head of state is still (if we believe al-Burhan) a set of many people (like in Switzerland). As for the state, a state is not just an army controlling a tv station and some buildings, it has to control the people and functioning of the ministries and civil servants and convince or force them to follow rules (or orders) to run the country. I put '(disputed)' with a link to the coup page, but if you have a better idea, please go ahead and edit or propose it for discussion. Much of the international community says that the Hamdok Cabinet is still the transitional government of Sudan, so I restored him, but it's also clear that al-Burhan and Hemetti dispute that.
