# The Border Management Authority says more than 12-thousand migrants have left South Africa through the Beitbridge border post in Limpopo over the past five days. The departures include over nine-thousand Malawians and three-thousand Zimbabweans who were repatriated or deported. Hundreds of Ghanians and Nigerians have also departed through OR Tambo International Airport in Gauteng. Authorities say the increased movement comes ahead of Tuesday’s planned anti-illegal immigration demonstrations, with authorities remaining on high alert.
