News:Demonstrators shut Beitbridge border post down

<vote /> Demonstrators have blocked the Beitbridge border post in protest to the implementation of the Statutory Instrument 64 of 2016 by Zimra. The protesters who marched from Msina were barred from entering the South African component of the border by the police of that country. It is understood that they wanted to walk through to the Zimbabwean side of the border.

The statutory instrument tightens importation of basic commodities such as cooking oil, toiletries among other items. You can view the full list of banned items here.

In June travelers also protested against the government regulations. Read the story here. Below are images showing the protestors as well as the level of damage they did.
