South Africa’s Durban city Rallies Against Xenophobia

Up to 5,000 people are marching in South Africa’s coastal city of Durban in a major rally against xenophobia following attacks on foreigners.
President Jacob Zuma has condemned the attacks, in which at least five people have died in recent weeks, as “shocking and unacceptable”.
The Zulu king has been accused of fuelling the violence. He denies this.
Many jobless South Africans accuse foreigners of taking jobs in a country where the unemployment rate is 24%.
“No amount of frustration or anger can justify the attacks on foreign nationals and the looting of their shops,” President Zuma told parliament on Thursday. He also urged for calm to be restored to the areas most impacted by violence.
