In Uganda, dozens of demonstrators have been arrested in Kampala for participating in a banned anti-corruption rally inspired by ongoing protests in Kenya. Police detained protesters who were marching and shouting slogans, citing concerns over national security. President Yoweri Museveni had warned that such demonstrations could destabilize the country.
Meanwhile, in Kenya, anti-government protests entered their sixth week with clashes between demonstrators and pro-government groups. Protesters, demanding President Ruto’s resignation and reform, faced increased police presence and heightened security at key locations, including Nairobi’s Jomo Kenyatta International Airport.
The unrest in Kenya has resulted in at least 50 deaths and hundreds of injuries, with authorities pledging to end the violence.
