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.
