notes: On 13 May 2019, men in RSF paramilitary uniforms attacked the sit-in demonstration at Khartoum (Khartoum, Khartoum), killing six (five protesters (one died the following day, and another on May 24th) and an army captain; the latter was killed by sharpshooters), and around 200 were wounded (76 by gunfire (9 critically)). The TMC and RSF have denied RSF involvement, attributing the attack to 'shadow brigades' linked to the Bashir regime posing as RSF (actor 1 coded as UAG pending further information). [size=no report]
