Zimbabwe begins repatriating its nationals from South Africa as concerns grow over potential xenophobic violence. Multiple reports say the Zimbabwean authorities have so far brought back 660 citizens. The action is described as precautionary, linked to escalating tensions in South Africa and to threats made by a self-styled anti-immigrant pressure group, March and March. The sources add that the repatriations follow a June 30 deadline referenced by the group, which has been associated with anti-immigration pressure. Both outlets frame the move as a response to fears that attacks could occur against foreign nationals, particularly Zimbabweans, amid wider unrest. While details on the exact logistics, timing, and whether further batches are planned are limited in the available excerpts, the reports are consistent that repatriations have started and that they are tied to the security concerns and the approaching June 30 date. The articles collectively indicate that Zimbabwe’s government is taking steps to reduce the risk to its citizens while the situation in South Africa remains tense.
