 Kenyan lawyers boycott courts over alleged judicial corruption Kenyan lawyers staged a nationwide boycott of court proceedings on Wednesday to protest alleged judicial corruption and chronic delays. Cases in the East African nation take an average of two years to conclude, according to official records, with lawyers blaming graft and systemic inefficiencies. "The court boycott is going on in courts across the country, with many lawyers heeding the call," Charles Kanjama, the president of the Law Society of Kenya (LSK), told reporters. However, the judiciary said that accountability mechanisms already exist through the Judicial Service Commission and the Office of the Judiciary Ombudsman, where complaints against judges and judicial officers can be lodged and investigated, according to a statement released prior to the boycott.

 Ukraine launches fourth straight night of drone strikes on Moscow as Russia reports widespread interceptions and regional disruptions

Ukrainian drones struck toward Moscow for a fourth consecutive night, prompting interceptions, airport disruptions, and emergency responses across parts of Russia, officials said Thursday.

Moscow Mayor Sergey Sobyanin said at least 15 drones were intercepted before reaching the capital, with no reported damage or casualties. He added that emergency crews were dispatched to areas where debris or downed drones were found.

Russia’s aviation authority temporarily restricted flights at two Moscow-area airports, Vnukovo and Zhukovsky, as a precaution during the overnight activity. Additional flight limitations were also imposed at airports in Sochi, Gelendzhik, and Krasnodar in southern Russia, affecting travel along the Black Sea region.

Authorities said hundreds of drones were intercepted across Russia overnight, with regional officials reporting scattered damage. In Krasnodar, debris from a drone struck an apartment building and sparked a fire, injuring two people. Separate damage to homes in a nearby district also left one person injured, according to regional officials.

Elsewhere, a major oil refinery near Krasnodar was reportedly hit and damaged, with a fire breaking out at the site. The facility has been targeted in previous drone attacks in recent years.

At the same time, Russia continued its own long-range strikes into Ukraine overnight, launching missiles and hundreds of drones. Ukrainian officials said most of the incoming projectiles were intercepted, though several still struck targets across multiple locations.

The exchange underscores the continued escalation of long-range aerial attacks between the two countries, with both sides reporting ongoing interceptions and periodic impacts on infrastructure and civilian areas.
