Sleeping on the pavement: The heartbreaking scenes unfolding on Che Guevara Road.
While children played and darted along the pavement outside the Home Affairs office on Che Guevara Road on Thursday, the difficult reality facing the refugee families living there remained impossible to ignore.
A walkthrough conducted by the Siyafana Sonke Action Campaign highlighted the conditions under which displaced men, women and children are currently living.
The Siyafana Sonke Action Campaign is a coalition of more than 160 civil society organisations established to oppose xenophobia, Afrophobia and anti-migrant violence across South Africa.
Ahead of the visit, campaign representative Yeshelen Govender described the challenges confronting those sheltering outside the Home Affairs office.
