Tanzanian police warn against sharing images following deadly election protests

Tanzania's President Samia Suluhu Hassan faces criticism over her handling of election unrest, with hundreds of deaths reported in protests following the barring of key opposition candidates. The government has denied the scale of deaths, but grim images of alleged victims have circulated on social media. The police have warned against sharing content that could cause panic or degrade dignity, and the government has lifted curfews in Dar es Salaam. However, the political situation remains tense, with international organizations calling for an independent investigation into any use of excessive force. The Daily News Now! — Every city.
