notes: On 17th December, several hundred student demonstrators gathered at the University of Khartoum in Shambat (Khartoum) to protest deteriorating economic circumstances and the recent withdrawal of subsidised flour (leading to shortages and price increases of bread). Note that these were the first of the demonstrations in which an explicitly anti-NCP agenda was reported as being advanced by demonstrators.
