notes: On 6 and 7 April 2020, two (or more) groups clashed in the areas of Khor Machar, Wechgatluak Rik and Torbar in Maiwut county (Jonglei state). There are disputed accounts of the actors involved; local authorities say that Gatjiok and Gatjaak sections of the Eastern Jikany Nuer were involved in clashes surrounding cattle raids, which may have involved SPLM-IO rebels. Former IO rebels under Maj. Gen James Ochan, who defected to the government last year, claim they were attacked by IO rebel forces, with three IO defectors wounded. The IO deny any involvement. The source does not mention fatalities.
