More than 2,500 people experienced political violence across Zimbabwe during a single month, according to the Zimbabwe Peace Project human rights organization. The ruling ZANU PF party topped the list of violators, followed by municipal authorities, law enforcement officers, and village chiefs.

The watchdog documented 116 separate incidents affecting 2,531 individuals, among them 109 persons with disabilities. Women comprised 1,360 of those impacted, while men accounted for 1,171. Violations ranged from forced relocations and physical attacks to restrictions on public gatherings, arbitrary detentions, biased food distribution, and blocked access to government services.

The organization called on government officials to enhance human rights safeguards, guarantee equitable public service delivery, and create protected channels for reporting abuses without fear of reprisal. Authorities have persistently been identified as the primary source of rights violations throughout the year.
