Malawians desperate to leave before unofficial deadline

DURBAN - Tensions are escalating in Durban as Malawians wait outside a temporary processing camp to be repatriated.

It comes amid rising pressure linked to an unofficial June 30 ultimatum targeting undocumented migrants.

The deadline, driven by citizen-led groups, has gained traction following weeks of protests and attacks.

The unrest has already turned deadly, with at least three foreign nationals killed in separate incidents.

There are growing concerns over further violence in the days leading up to the cutoff date.

But government says police are fully prepared for any unrest, urging citizens not to break the law.
