Tanzanian President Samia Suluhu Hassan was inaugurated amidst nationwide internet blackouts and claims by the opposition that hundreds were killed in post-election protests. The Chadema party rejected the results showing Hassan won 98 percent of the vote, labeling it a "sham."

• The opposition party, Chadema, claims "no less than 800" deaths occurred by Saturday, though these figures remain unverified.
• A diplomatic source reported "credible reports of hundreds -- perhaps even thousands -- of deaths registered at hospitals and health clinics."
• The UN chief Antonio Guterres expressed deep concern over the situation, including reports of deaths and injuries during demonstrations.
