10月8日，南非爆发反移民抗议活动，部分示威升级为暴力事件1。此次抗议由法院裁决要求政府恢复处理庇护申请引发，加剧了仇外紧张局势1。
暴力事件主要发生在德班和约翰内斯堡索韦托地区1。在德班，约10辆车被翻转并纵火，外国商店遭到掠夺1。在索韦托，至少9辆车被焚毁，还传出枪声，外国人与南非人之间发生冲突1。约翰内斯堡警察部门发言人Xolani Fihla确认"目前没有报告人员伤亡"1。
对于引发抗议的法院判决，南非政府在周三发表声明强调，该判决"不自动授予任何进入南非人士难民身份或永久居住权"1。南非今年经历了数月的反移民抗议，失业率达三分之一1。
Anti-migrant demonstrations escalated into violence across South Africa on October 8, 2026, following a court ruling that required the government to resume processing asylum applications.1 The unrest, which reflects escalating xenophobic tensions in the country, saw protests erupt in the coastal city of Durban and the Soweto area of Johannesburg.1
In Durban, approximately 10 vehicles were overturned and set on fire, while foreign-owned shops were looted.1 In Soweto, at least 9 cars were burned, gunfire was reported, and confrontations broke out between foreign nationals and South African citizens.1 According to Xolani Fihla, a spokesperson for the Johannesburg police department, "there are currently no reports of casualties."1
The government responded by clarifying that the court's decision "does not automatically grant any person entering South Africa refugee status or permanent residence rights."1 The protest comes amid months of anti-migrant unrest this year in South Africa, where the unemployment rate stands at one-third.1
