Smugglers got busted trying to drag a busload of unaccompanied minors across the river. South African border agents intercepted over twenty kids near the Limpopo waterway around Beitbridge during an alleged trafficking run. Authorities found children aged five to seventeen with ten adults, yet only one adult actually held parental rights.

Commissioner Michael Masiapato highlighted massive red flags regarding child exploitation and legal violations. Officials handed the group over to social services to figure out why these minors moved without guardians. The agency vowed to keep hammering these joint operations to stop vulnerable people from getting treated like cargo.

This bust follows a massive cleanup where Zimbabwe immigration enforcement snagged over three thousand six hundred people for various illegal activities just last month. Officers also turned away twenty-seven travelers from places like Nigeria and the Congo because their paperwork failed to meet visa requirements upon arrival.
