President William Ruto has condemned recent attacks on police as a ‘declaration of war,’ pledging to take decisive action against politicians who incite violence and unrest in Kenya.

• At least 31 people have died amidst the unrest, according to the Kenya National Commission on Human Rights (KNCHR).
• This statement was made during the commissioning of a police affordable housing project in Kilimani.
• The unrest was triggered by accusations of police brutality, with several police stations set ablaze in retaliation, including the Itibo Police Station in Nyamira County.
