SANDF Denies Preparing Troops for June 30 Anti-Immigration Protests
The South African National Defence Force has rejected social media rumours that soldiers will be deployed ahead of planned anti-immigration protests on June 30. In an official statement, the SANDF called the reports false and misleading, stressing that no deployment orders have been issued. It reminded the public that peaceful protest is a constitutional right and warned against spreading unverified information that could cause panic. Protest leaders from March and March clarified they did not set the June 30 deadline for undocumented migrants to leave. Meanwhile, the South African Police Service says its joint intelligence and public order units are monitoring the situation closely and will act decisively against any violence or vigilantism. Authorities urge all communities to remain calm, comply with the law, and avoid taking matters into their own hands.
