Protests across Kenya

Kenyan police have clashed with anti-tax protesters in the capital, Nairobi.

Kenyan police have clashed with anti-tax protesters in the capital, Nairobi, as demonstrations have spread to across the country, including to the president’s home town of Eldoret. Anti-riot police, some on horseback, fired tear gas to disperse crowds of protesters. We put young Kenyan protestors in conversation with each other, hearing some of their reasons for confronting the police.

Hundreds of people have died and thousands have been treated for heatstroke while performing the annual Muslim Hajj pilgrimage to Mecca amid extreme temperatures of up to 49 degrees Celsius. We've been getting messages from pilgrims on the conditions they've experienced recently. We also cross to correspondents in Nigeria, Pakistan and Dhaka, some of the countries where Muslims travel from to make the holy pilgrimage.

In the European Football Championships, we're hearing about all the latest tournament action in Germany - including Denmark vs England and Slovenia vs Serbia.
