Sept. 9 (UPI) -- The Nepali Army is being deployed Tuesday night in response to violence that has broken out amid protests in Nepal's capital city of Kathmandu.
Spurred by a social media ban that has since been rescinded, reports of looting, arson and physical violence are being reported since protesting erupted Monday.
Nepal's prime minister, KP Sharma Oli, has resigned from his post in response to the situation. His home was set on fire, as the residences of several Nepali office holders have been attacked.
The protestors have been labeled by many as Gen Z due to the general age range of those involved. At least 22 people have been killed since the beginning of the protests.
