Kenya protests: Police fire rubber bullets, tear gas at protesters after President Ruto urges talks

Kenyan police used rubber bullets and tear gas on protesters in Nairobi. This comes despite President William Ruto scrapping tax hikes after deadly clashes. Young Kenyans led the protests, catching authorities off-guard. Dozens rallied in Nairobi. Ruto made a U-turn on the tax hikes but protesters criticised it as too late. The unrest has led to a state-backed rights group investigating 22 deaths and 300 injuries nationwide. International community calls for accountability and respect for peaceful protests.
