WATCH LIVE: 6 Killed In South Africa During June 30 Protests

Xenophobic violence in South Africa during June 30, 2026 protests resulted in over 50 deaths, with foreign nationals from Ghana, Nigeria, and other countries being killed, highlighting how political instability in neighboring countries like Zimbabwe (where President Mnangagwa's attempts to extend his term to a third term have caused mass migration) drives regional migration patterns and creates conditions for xenophobic violence, demonstrating that effective immigration policy requires addressing root causes in source countries rather than relying solely on border controls.
