notes: On 13 May, more than 500 car owners and drivers demonstrated in front of a petrol station in El Obeid. Their protest blocked the highway connecting El Obeid and Khartoum for an hour. The spontaneous protest erupted when the owner of the petrol station told the car owners that he had received instructions from the authorities to sell fuel only to government agencies. The protest ended when the governor ordered the owner to sell fuel again.
