notes: NISS members backed by a pro-government student militia forcibly dispersed a sit-in held by Darfuri students at the University of El Zaeem El Azhari in Khartoum. Police fired tear gas and rubber bullets leaving at least two Darfuri students injured. Police also evacuated the university complex, and arrested at least 20 Darfuri students. The charges against them were dropped the following day. The Darfuri students, led by the Darfur Students' Association, had gathered in a sit-in to demand the university administration to exempt them from tuition fees.
