Authorities in Zimbabwe have completed DNA testing to identify six children killed in a bus crash in South Africa and will transport their remains home by road. The young victims died when a bus traveling from Port Elizabeth lost control and plunged off a cliff along the N1 highway outside Makhado town, located 100 kilometers from the Beitbridge border post. The collision claimed 36 Zimbabwean lives and eight Malawian passengers.

Consul-General to South Africa Eria Phiri confirmed that families of the deceased minors have been notified about the conclusion of genetic testing procedures. Officials will process repatriation paperwork before moving the bodies across the border. The mortal remains of 30 adult victims were already returned for burial.

Eight survivors remain hospitalized at various medical facilities in Limpopo province. Zimbabwe's government is covering all repatriation expenses, burial costs, and medical bills for injured passengers. Adult victims were identified through photographs, physical examination, and fingerprint verification, while DNA analysis was used for children to prevent misidentification.
