  "summary": "South Africa's anti-immigration group, March and March, has set September 30 as a deadline for undocumented foreigners to leave the country. The group staged a protest outside the Southern African Development Community summit in Durban on Monday, calling on African leaders to take back their undocumented citizens living in South Africa. This follows their previous nationwide protests on June 30, demanding tougher action against undocumented foreigners and warning of a massive deportation by the end of September. The protest comes amid renewed debate over South Africa's treatment of foreign nationals, with President Cyril Ramaphosa condemning discrimination and violence against people from other African countries.",
