Burundians rush to leave Kenya after crackdown on businesses

Hundreds of Burundians living in Kenya gathered outside their embassy in Nairobi to apply for travel documents to return home after President William Ruto ordered the closure of foreign-owned small businesses. This decision sparked fear among foreigners, particularly Burundians who rely on street vending. Accounts from Burundians, such as Pastor Jean-Baptiste Ndayizeye, mention attacks and robberies, comparing the situation to xenophobic violence in South Africa.
