Following President Samia Suluhu Hassan's landslide win on October 29 amid opposition boycotts and disqualifications, police cracked down on protests in cities like Dar es Salaam and Arusha, fatally shooting unarmed civilians as verified by CNN's geolocated videos, audio forensics, and satellite images of disturbed soil at mass grave sites. Witnesses described overflowing morgues with gunshot victims, bodies piled outside hospitals, and injured people denied aid. CHADEMA claims over 1,000 deaths, the UN cites hundreds, while the government reviews the report and blames agitators.
