Displaced Malawian nationals gathered outside Sherwood Hall in Durban as South Africa’s Department of Home Affairs processed individuals seeking repatriation to their home country.
The exercise is part of ongoing efforts to assist migrants affected by recent tensions and security concerns targeting foreign nationals in parts of South Africa. Officials were seen verifying documents and processing eligible individuals for their voluntary return to Malawi.

Many of those at the venue queued patiently as authorities worked through the registration and verification process. The scene underscored the growing demand for assistance among migrants seeking to leave the country and reunite with their families.
