notes: Change to armed group: On 7 June 2017, amid the power struggle between forces loyal to Abdelaziz al-Hilu and Malik Agar, the Nuba Mountains Liberation Council (based in the South Kordofan stronghold of Abdelaziz, and coded to Kauda, Heiban locality) formally relieved SPLM-North Chairman Malik Agar, Secretary General Arman, and Chief of General Staff Lt. Gen. Mukwar of their functions and prevented them from entering SPLM-North controlled areas in South Kordofan state. They temporarily replaced Agar with Abdelaziz al-Hilu. Agar claimed NMLC's decision had no legal basis and represented a coup based on tribal alliances.
