US embassy in Pretoria claims more Afrikaner ‘refugees’ are leaving SA for America

# The US embassy in Pretoria says refugees continue to arrive in America from South Africa on commercial flights as part of the Afrikaner resettlement programme’s ongoing operations. Last month, a group of 49 Afrikaners left the country for the US, claiming that they were victims of genocide and sought refugee status. The embassy told News24 it is reviewing inquiries from South Africans who have expressed interest in settling in America. It adds that it is contacting eligible individuals for refugee interviews and processing.
