Fire seen in the parliament building

Internet is reportedly slowing down in #Kenya - many start using VPN like this https://apps.apple.com/app/id1370293473
to access apps and keep reporting on the situation

Statement from the #Kenya Red Cross:
"Our vehicles have been attacked.
Staff and volunteers injured.
We have no contact or role in transporting persons other than the injured.
It is crucial that we are granted access to continue our humanitarian efforts without hindrance.
It is quite unfair that we are being accused of whisking members of parliament while our staff and volunteers put their lives in danger to provide critical medical care to those in need.'

Donald #Trump has been #convicted of falsifying business records in the first criminal #trial of a former president

The 12 jurors have been deliberating for two days

The court heard from 22 witnesses over six weeks, including Stormy Daniels, whose alleged sexual encounter with Trump is at the centre of this case

Trump is accused of concealing a payment made by his former lawyer to buy the ex-adult film star’s silence shortly before the 2016 election
