Kenya Protests Turn Ugly: Ruto Calls Protests ‘Treasonous’ After Police Fire At Demonstrators
The unrest has led to tragic outcomes, with at least five protestors being shot dead and over 150 injured in Nairobi. Police reportedly used tear gas and live rounds to disperse thousands who stormed Kenya's Parliament, setting part of it on fire. Kenyan President William Ruto condemned the protests, labelling them “treasonous” but did not address the widespread outrage against the finance bill that triggered the demonstrations. The nationwide protests, which called for a “total shutdown” of the country, turned violent as police clashed with demonstrators. India has issued an advisory for its citizens in Kenya to exercise extreme caution and limit non-essential movements amid escalating violent protests in the East African nation. The protests are in response to the Kenyan government's proposed tax hikes. #KenyaProtests #TaxHikeProtests #NairobiUnrest #WilliamRuto #TreasonAccusations #PoliceViolence #HumanRights #MilitaryDeployment #CostOfLivingCrisis #FinanceBill #ProtestCasualties #GovernmentBuildingsBurn #SocialMediaCrackdown #IndianAdvisory #7DaysOfRage ~PR.152~HT.101~HT.318~GR.125~
