South Africa Tries to “Smoke Out” Illegal Gold Miners | Vantage with Palki Sharma
There are thousands of illegal gold miners in South Africa. People from neighbouring countries often go to South Africa’s abandoned mines to try and find some leftover gold. The South African government is now cracking down on these illegal miners. It has launched Operation “Close the Hole” to “Smoke Out” the miners. South Africa has cut food and water supplies to the mines, and it is arresting the people that leave the mine.

This is genocide.
Where is the human right people now
How can they be illegal miners in their country or just our neighbors yet these mines belonged or still belongs to imperialist what a shame in this era.
South Africa got illegal migrants too? They need someone like Trump.
We are being disrespected in this country. Illegals demand things like injustice from our government.
These Zama Zama are dangerous criminal syndicates that terrorised communities across the country but than you hear some people trying to humanize them or justify them.
Totally despicable!!!
I stand with the minister on this.
African local miners mining- they call it illegal, foreigners mining all their resources- they love it π€¦ββοΈ
stop misleading people,i am a zulu gent,the word zamazama does not mean take a chance,the word zama mean to take a chance or to try but the word zamazama means a total disaster or exploision or something very dangerous.
Illegal mining in South Africa has destroyed people's properties. People's houses has cracked and demolished by these activities. The government should really stop this illegal mining and also force the mines to close those shafts so that illegal mining can stop.
He's very sad with black people we fight each other and our resources are going to the westerners or go to America while we kill each other as blacks
