After the 1989 Sudanese coup d'état, the Revolutionary Command Council for National Salvation (a military government led by Omar al-Bashir) targeted squatters. Evictions were mandated in 1990 by Decree 941 (Approval of Some Procedures to Contain Squatter Settlement) and an amendment to the Civil Transactions Act. The evictions sometimes resulted in violent episodes, such as in October 1994, when at least eleven people were killed in protests at Khoder in Omdurman. In that case, there was no judicial order and no notice had been given. Minister of Engineering Affairs Doctor Bannaga commented "We do not specify the date because if we do [...] They'll be organized and make an organized opposition". The forcible resettlement plans were condemned by the United States and other international donors. At Kosti around 72,000 squatters were evicted and at Ad-Damazin 23,000. In 1992, the United States Agency for International Development and the United Nations Children's Fund estimated 400,000 people had been evicted and moved into camps lacking sanitation and markets. In the newly created Al Salaam camp there were over 80,000 people. The Angola informal settlement was demolished but many of its 50,000 inhabitants simply returned and rebuilt their shacks.
