Hundreds march in Johannesburg against illegal migration as shops shut over looting fears

Hundreds of South Africans protested in Johannesburg against high levels of illegal immigration, calling for strict enforcement of immigration laws and mass deportations. The protests, part of a broader wave, resulted in the closure of many shops due to fears of potential looting or opportunistic crimes. Organized groups, including March and March, Operation Dudula, and ActionSA, argue that illegal immigration causes urban overcrowding, labor tensions, and crime.
