KHARTOUM, Feb. 7 (Xinhua) -- Sudan's Prime Minister Abdalla Hamdok on Sunday issued a decision to dissolve the government, said the Council of Ministers in a statement.
"In accordance with the provisions of the constitutional document for the transitional period, the prime minister issued a decision today to relieve the ministers and ministers of state in the government of the transitional period from their posts and end the assignment of the acting ministers," the statement said.
According to the decision, the relieved ministers would remain in their ministries as caretaker ministers until the new government is formed.
