The Third Sudanese Civil War (16 July 2007 – 17 November 2011) was a conflict between the central Sudanese government and the Sudanese Democratic Army (SDA) after Sudanese president Khaled Ibn Mohamed's brutal suppression of protesters in the capital, Khartoum, at the beginning of the Arab Spring. Unlike the previous two civil wars in Sudan's history, the SDA formed in response to president Khaled Ibn Mohamed's Ba'athist party and a harsh standard of living. After the 2006 general election, in which incumbent Khaled Ibn Mohamed defeated Abdul Kareem Hussien in a landslide victory, the SDA did not accept the victory and supported Hussein's declaration of the election to have been fraudulent. Following the Khartoum Massacre, in which 537 protesters were killed and over 2,000 were arrested in protest of Ibn Mohamed's victory, the SDA would declare a civil war against Ibn Mohamed's regime.
