## Resource

South Africa’s government is cracking down on illegal immigration with renewed force, sending over 2,700 foreign nationals home since President Ramaphosa unveiled a five-point strategy — and that number is set to climb. The Inter-Ministerial Committee on Migration is deploying drones, bodycams, and tougher enforcement to shut down loopholes, fight corruption, and secure borders — arresting more than 7,400 people in just one month. Amid rising xenophobic protests, officials clarify most Durban demonstrators are legal residents, while 7,000 Malawians are being repatriated with government assistance. Authorities are also targeting corrupt employers and denouncing hate speech, warning that xenophobia harms South Africa’s global standing and economy — urging unity, respect, and dignity for all.
