South Africa is bracing for a mass exodus of undocumented migrants as anti-immigrant protests sweep the country, fueled by growing resentment towards foreign nationals. The demonstrations, which have turned violent in some areas, have seen xenophobic attacks on foreign-owned businesses and homes, leaving many migrants fearing for their lives. With thousands already fleeing, the South African government is under pressure to restore order and protect the rights of foreign nationals, many of whom have lived in the country for years. As the situation spirals out of control, humanitarian groups are scrambling to provide aid to those in need, warning of a potential humanitarian crisis.
