In a striking revelation at the Mozambique border, South African soldiers apprehended 76 individuals connected to various crimes during recent patrols. This alarming statistic sheds light on the tactics employed by smugglers and the profiles of those involved. Notably, 52 of these individuals were detained and handed over to local police, highlighting the extent of illegal activities at the border. The increase in undocumented persons, particularly among Mozambicans, raises serious concerns about security and crime across national boundaries. These findings emphasize the critical need for enhanced border security measures as part of Operation Corona, aimed at intercepting not only contraband but also potential offenders.
