Major General Phumelele Makoba emphasised the importance of law enforcement in maintaining order during the upcoming marches.

KwaZulu-Natal police have identified the eThekwini and uMgungundlovu districts as key hotspots ahead of June 30, the deadline set by groups calling for undocumented immigrants to leave South Africa.

Speaking during a media briefing on the province's readiness for the planned marches on June 30, KZN Acting Police Commissioner Major General Phumelele Makoba said eThekwini district is one of their hotspots and uMgungundlovu.

Reflecting on the recent wave of marches calling for undocumented immigrants to leave the country, Makoba said marches are expected to be heightened on June 30, with fears of instability and chaos.

Makoba said that based on the information they have, the June 30 marches will be different due to the number and locations of the marches.
