# The South African Communist Party has strongly condemned the recent actions of anti-immigrant vigilante groups, including Operation Dudula. These groups have targeted migrants and undocumented South Africans mainly in Gauteng and KwaZulu-Natal, denying them access to essential public services and turning them away from government clinics and hospitals. The SACP’s Mbulelo Mandlana says populist vigilantism, reminiscent of apartheid-era practices such as public harassment and demands for identity documents, is not a solution, but only deepens division.
