The situation at the Lebombo border between South Africa and Mozambique has escalated, as ongoing protests against rising living costs in Mozambique have turned increasingly violent. Protesters clashed with police, with reports of tear gas and rubber bullets deployed in attempts to disperse the crowds. The unrest has disrupted travel and trade, with long queues of vehicles stranded at the border. Authorities urge travelers to postpone non-essential trips and advise extreme caution in the area.
