Summary

On September 30, 2026, the anti-migrant group March and March organized protests in multiple South African cities, including Durban, Cape Town, and Pretoria, drawing hundreds of participants. The demonstrations combined calls for deportations of undocumented immigrants—with an unofficial deadline of September 30—alongside protests against gender-based violence and femicide. Most reports describe the protests as peaceful with no violence against foreigners, though one account mentions at least one assault during the Durban march and threats to immigrant-run shops that subsequently closed. The Cape Town march involved approximately 25 people, while the Pretoria march was postponed due to rain and poor turnout. Reports note ongoing anti-immigration tensions in South Africa have previously led to attacks on foreign nationals and diplomatic tensions with other African nations, with over 200,000 people reportedly fleeing the country according to one source.
