Last update: 5 hours agoRepatriation Safety & Health: South Africa’s Home Affairs confirmed a Malawian died after falling ill on a bus leaving the Musina Temporary Repatriation Centre for the Beitbridge border, with police and forensic procedures followed before the remaining passengers continued. Border Operations: Home Affairs also reported the death occurred about 15km from the centre before the bus returned, as officials investigate the cause.
