Kenyan police have released three people who were arrested for participating in a pro-Palestine meeting in the capital, Nairobi.
The three were freed on Sunday without charges after widespread criticism from some Kenyans, politicians and human rights groups.
They said they were holding a “solidarity meeting”.
Kenyan MP Yusuf Hassan condemned the arrests.
The head of Amnesty International in Kenya, Irũngũ Houghton, said that the disruption of the meeting was “unlawful” and “deeply disturbing”.
It had been organised by the Kenya Palestinian Solidarity Committee after police stopped an earlier demonstration that the group had planned outside the US embassy.
President William Ruto has expressed his government’s full support for Israel in the ongoing conflict.
