SAHRC Raises Alarm Over Rising Tensions Around Anti-Immigration Marches

As South Africa marks Africa Day, the South African Human Rights Commission is raising alarm over growing tensions linked to marches reportedly targeting undocumented foreign nationals. The Commission has now called for an urgent virtual imbizo, bringing together civil society, community leaders and stakeholders to address rising reports of violence, displacement, and threats to human dignity. The aim is to find solutions, but also to confront difficult questions about rights, safety, and social cohesion in the country.
