Kenya on Tuesday hit by internet disruptions as anti-Finance Bill protests were held across the country, despite the communications regulator earlier dispelling fears of a possible disruption.

Global internet governance and cybersecurity tracking organisation NetBlocks on Tuesday confirmed they had detected “a major network disruption” in Kenya just moments after protesters stormed parliament.
