South Africa closes border again as post-election violence worsens in Mozambique

Violent protests have escalated in Mozambique, with authorities reportedly using live rounds on citizens to quash dissent following a challenged election. Demonstrations began when opposition leader Venancio Mondlane’s lawyer was assassinated in his car, leading to outcries of government repression and election fraud. Now, with a rising death toll, some are desperately trying to flee the country.
