In response to nationwide anti-government protests, Kenyan President William Ruto deems the demonstrations 'treasonous' and deploys the military to quell the unrest. The protests, incited by proposed unpopular taxes, have resulted in at least 17 deaths and are primarily organized by young Kenyans via social media. The demonstrations, met with police brutality, demand the scrapping of the tax plan. The IMF-endorsed measures have caused public discontent due to rising living costs and high unemployment rates.
