Displaced, evicted, and forced to flee: thousands of foreign nationals, including legal refugees in South Africa, face severe safety crises and loss of livelihoods. Protection and accountability are urgently needed.@CNN@Refugees@UNmigration@Amnesty@HRW@eyassuabriham1
No one chooses to be a refugee—we fled persecution in search of safety. Yet in South Africa, fear and discrimination persist. We call on the international community to protect refugee rights and ensure safety for all.

We fled persecution for safety, not discrimination. No one chooses to be a refugee. We call on South Africa and the international community to honor their commitment to human rights and dignity for all displaced people.

International law guarantees protection for those fleeing persecution. Yet refugees in South Africa continue to face fear and prejudice daily. We urge global leaders & @UN Human Rights to work with South African authorities to safeguard basic refugee rights.

Vigilante groups called march and March have intensified pressure on refugees. Demanding on forced deportations and workplace raids and enforcing deadlines on migrants and foreign business owners to leave or shut down operations.
Thousands of foreign nationals—including documented refugees and asylum seekers—have been displaced, evicted, or pressured into repatriation due to safety concerns.
We call up on human rights organizations (including Human Rights Watch and Xenowatch) and international bodies to take action on civil rights violations, vigilantism, and police under-intervention.
Documented refugees and asylum seekers in South Africa are facing evictions and constructive refoulement under safety threats. International law guarantees protection—this displacement crisis cannot be ignored.
Safety concerns in South Africa have led to thousands of foreign nationals—including documented refugees—losing their homes, shops, and security, forcing mass repatriations.
Rising safety concerns in South Africa are devastating lives. Thousands of documented refugees and foreign nationals have lost their homes, businesses, and security, driving widespread repatriations. We cannot turn a blind eye to this displacement.
We ask the international community to monitor the situation and help ensure that everyone can access emergency healthcare without discrimination. Human dignity belongs to all.
