In a day marked by tension, tear gas, and confrontation, one moment during the Nairobi protests broke through the noise, when a protester stopped to assist a police officer overcome by tear gas.
Amid the chaos in the city’s Central Business District (CBD), the officer appeared disoriented and in distress. Without hesitation, a protester, carrying a basic first aid kit, rushed to his aid, offering water and assistance as crowds looked on.
