Migration remains one of South Africa's most pressing policy challenges, with government defending its latest enforcement measures while warning against vigilantism and unlawful identity checks. More than 53,000 foreign nationals have been processed for deportation or repatriation, raising questions about border management, public safety, human rights and the country's long-term migration strategy. We unpack the latest developments and what they mean for South Africa with Dr Rebecca Walker, Researcher at the African Centre for Migration and Society.
