notes: During early May (and likely in the weeks before, date of May 1st used at time precision 2) reports emerged of SPLM-IO forces mobilising - and possibly recruiting - in the area of Maluk (Jonglei state, coordinates for Malek used at precision 2), under the command of Generals Simon Gatwech Dual and Duop Lam. The SPLM-IO have denied these reports, saying instead that General Simon Gatwech's presence is related to peace dissemination efforts, and that troops are preparing for cantonment.
