At least two people have died and five injured after Kenyan police opened fire to disperse opposition protests in the western city of Kisumu, a local reporter has told the BBC.
The police have not commented.
The opposition has been holding weekly demonstrations against the electoral commission, which it says is biased.
Nairobi’s police chief had warned opposition supporters not to take part in yesterday’s protest in the Kenyan capital “if you value your life”.
Officers shot dead three people in similar protests in May. They said they were acting in self-defence.
Journalist Richard Omondi says he has confirmed the latest fatalities with the authorities at the Kisumu hospital where the injured were taken.
A bullet has also been removed from the body of a five-year-old boy, who survived the injury.
