Crowd of around 50 people carried out attack on foreign national

The anti-migrant protests in South Africa took a fatal turn as a foreign national was beaten to death by a mob of around 50 people in Durban. The police are investigating the killings, which has once again exposed the growing hostilities against the migrant population in the country. According to the police investigating the case, the victim is believed to be in his late 30s or early 40s and was declared dead on the spot after the attack. Investigators say a group had been marching through central Durban when two men appeared to break away and approach the victim. He was then attacked by around 50 people. The nationality of the victim has not yet been disclosed and the police say the motive for the killing remains unknown. No details about the arrests have been provided as of now. The killing comes after months of anti-migrant protests across South Africa with some demonstrations descending into sheer violence and chaos and triggering international condemnation. Earlier in the month, protests in Durban and Johannesburg turned violent and led to businesses owned by foreigners being looted and their vehicles set ablaze. The protests were linked to opposition to the processing of asylum applications at a refugee reception centre. The wider unrest has forced thousands of migrants from other African countries to flee affected communities. Now, a fatal attack in Durban adds a grim new dimension to South Africa's deepening migration tensions. Protests against undocumented migrants have turned deadly in Durban, KwaZulu-Natal. Police are investigating the killing of a foreign national who was allegedly beaten to death by a crowd during an anti-migrant march. Authorities are working to establish victims' identity and the circumstances surrounding the attack. This incident has once again intensified criticism of South Africa, Africa with the country facing renewed accusations of xenophobia as violence and intimidation against foreign nationals continue. Several African governments have raised concerns over attacks on their citizens and questioned the South African government's response.
