Internet connectivity in Kenya experienced a major disruption on Tuesday, as reported by the Internet monitoring site NetBlocks. This disruption occurred in the midst of widespread protests in the country, which included the breaching of the Kenyan Parliament.
NetBlocks highlighted that the disruption followed a deadly crackdown by police on #RejectFinanceBill2024 protesters, despite authorities previously stating that there would be no internet shutdown. The impact of the outages extended beyond Kenya, affecting neighboring countries such as Burundi, Uganda, and Rwanda.
