Kenya Unrest: Violent Clashes Force Kenyan President Ruto to Withdraw Tax Bill| Watch

Kenyan President William Ruto withdrew a controversial tax bill following violent protests that left 23 dead and hundreds injured.

The bill, aimed at raising $2.7 billion in additional taxes, sparked nationwide demonstrations demanding Ruto's resignation.

Protesters broke into parliament after lawmakers passed the measures.

Ruto's concession may temporarily ease tensions but leaves him balancing citizens' demands against pressure from international lenders.
