At least 11 people have died and more than 500 were arrested in anti-government protests across Kenya on Monday, according to the country’s National Police Service.

At least 10 people were shot dead and 29 injured in Kenya as anti-government protests erupted after restarting early last month.

Kenya's security forces have blocked all major roads leading into central Nairobi, ahead of planned nationwide protests. Much of the city centre is deserted, with businesses shut and a heavy security presence on the streets. Some schools have advised students to stay at home.
