Kenya (election violence): A coalition warned that political goonism and hired violence could undermine participation ahead of the 2027 election, calling for investigations and accountability. Lebanon (civilian killings): Hezbollah lawyers’ group condemned attacks on civilians in southern Lebanon and urged Lebanon to pursue legal action internationally.
