Protests have erupted in Tanzania for a third day, with demonstrators condemning the recent election as unfair due to the exclusion of key opposition figures against President Samia Suluhu Hassan. An internet blackout hampers reports of violence, with at least 10 fatalities linked to the unrest, prompting the UN to urge security forces to refrain from excessive force. The CCM party is expected to retain power, while opposition leader Tundu Lissu remains jailed, sparking accusations of electoral fraud. Amid calls for peace from religious leaders, the situation remains tense as protests continue in major cities.
