Tanzania opposition groups say ‘hundreds dead’ in unrest amid internet blackout | DW News

Authorities in Tanzania have imposed curfews and an internet blackout as post-election protests sweep the country. Demonstrators have clashed with police in several cities following Wednesday's general election. They say the results are unfair, after the president's main challengers were excluded from the ballot. The blackout is raising concerns about the ability to get reliable information about what is happening on the ground.
