Thousands return to Malawi to escape South Africa's xenophobic violence

In South Africa, escalating xenophobic violence has led to thousands fleeing the country, with 15,000 Malawians returning home amid the unrest. Protests demanding the removal of undocumented foreign nationals have claimed four lives and caused widespread panic. While some protesters blame migrants for job scarcity and crime, President Cyril Ramaphosa and human rights groups argue against these claims, emphasizing the importance of inclusive policies. This crisis highlights the deep-seated issues of xenophobia and its devastating impact on both migrants and host communities.
