South Africans stranded in Mozambique will be allowed to return to SA during a three-day period, the Department of International Relations and Cooperation (DIRCO) announced on Tuesday night.
Dirco said in a Facebook message: “[ANNOUNCEMENT]: DIRCO is pleased to announce that following discussions with our Mozambican partners, all South Africans stranded in Mozambique can return home through all borders.”
Using the hashtags #RepatriationSA #COVID19, the post included an image on which it was written that the South Africans will be allowed to travel back home from Mozambique through all borders for three days, from 12-14 June 2020.
