South African Protesters Drive Out Immigrants Amid Violent Door-to-Door Searches
Thousands of undocumented residents fled their homes following violent demonstrations and armed robberies targeting immigrant communities. This violence coincides with a government crackdown where authorities deported or repatriated over 53,000 people in one month. Local groups organized door-to-door searches to identify migrants and demand their immediate removal from the country. Law enforcement officials arrested more than 900 individuals during nationwide protests involving looting and one fatality. While many have fled the hostility, some migrants remain determined to stay despite the increasing risks.
