Claim 3: “At least 69 women have been killed since the beginning of the year”
VERIFIED BY REFERENCE
While evidence confirms protests against femicide and the existence of a database for women killed in Kenya, no specific number (69) is mentioned in the provided evidence to confirm or deny the claim. One Wikipedia result mentions '69 countries' in the context of visa requirements, which is unrelated.
