 U.S equipment, experts arrive at Kenya Ebola facility despite court order, protests Around 20 flights carrying medical equipment and specialist staff have landed at a base in Kenya where the U.S. ​government is continuing to build an Ebola quarantine facility despite protests and Kenyan court orders blocking it, according to flight data and officials. At least two ‌people have been killed in protests in the central Kenyan town of Nanyuki, home to the Kenyan air force base where the U.S. military is building a 50-bed unit for Americans who might be exposed to the virus, which has infected hundreds in Democratic Republic of Congo and Uganda.

'NO KINGS' PROTEST IN LOS ANGELES TURNS CHAOTIC AS DOZENS ARRESTED AFTER DAY OF MASS DEMONSTRATIONS. (PHOTO).


 'No Kings' protest in Los Angeles turns chaotic as dozens arrested after day of mass demonstrations


The “No Kings” protests in Los Angeles this past weekend highlighted how quickly a peaceful demonstration can shift into unrest. 


Thousands of people filled downtown streets as part of a global wave of coordinated events opposing President Donald Trump’s policies and the war in Iran. 


For much of the day, the atmosphere was calm, with chants and signs near City Hall and Grand Park. 


But by evening, tensions escalated near the Metropolitan Detention Center, where authorities declared an unlawful assembly.


Police reported that some protesters began throwing rocks, bottles, and chunks of concrete, injuring two federal officers. 


In response, law enforcement deployed tear gas, pepper balls, and bean bag rounds to disperse the crowd. 


Seventy-four people were arrested for failing to leave, including eight juveniles, and one person was detained for carrying a dagger. 


Witnesses like Navy veteran Andre Andrews Jr. emphasized that the majority of the march had been peaceful, blaming “bad actors” for the clashes that followed.


Despite the turmoil in Los Angeles, organizers stressed that the broader “No Kings” movement remained largely peaceful across the country and abroad. 


With more than 3,100 events worldwide, they described the demonstrations as “historic” in scale. 


Still, the confrontations in L.A. serve as a reminder of how fragile the line can be between peaceful protest and violent unrest, underscoring the challenges of maintaining order during mass mobilizations.
