Kenyan protesters promise more rallies after deadly parliament violence

Kenyan protesters vowed on Wednesday to keep up their demonstrations against new tax hikes, a day after police opened fire on crowds trying to storm parliament, leaving at least eight people dead and scores wounded.

As heavily armed officers patrolled the streets of the capital Nairobi, supporters of the week-old protest movement took to X, using the hashtag #tupatanethursday, or "see you on Thursday" in a mix of Swahili and English.
