Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 69857, member: 636"] A chartered flight carrying more than 170 Palestinian refugees from Gaza has arrived in South Africa, facilitated by the humanitarian organization Gift of the Givers. The group landed at O.R. Tambo International Airport, where their entry was initially delayed due to missing exit stamps on their passports. South African authorities, including the Department of Home Affairs, intervened to waive the stamp requirement, allowing the individuals to enter the country and seek asylum. The refugees will receive support from Gift of the Givers, which is providing immediate aid such as accommodation and legal assistance. This humanitarian effort reflects the South African government's established policy of solidarity with Palestine. The arriving refugees will now begin the process of applying for formal refugee status within South Africa. [/QUOTE]
