notes: On 13 October 2020, Prime Minister Hamdock fired Saleh Ammar, the Beni Amir Governor of Kassala, amid deteriorating security in East Sudan. The Governor refused to resign, prompting his dismissal. The appointment of the Governor in July exacerbated tensions among the Beni Amir and Beja clans in the East.
