Hundreds of Mozambicans staged a march here on Saturday towards the South African High Commission, protesting against the xenophobic violence in South Africa.
The protesters held slogans such as "stop the killing" and "no xenophobia", calling for peace and harmony among the Africans, Xinhua reported.
"We continue to call upon our president to continue to demonstrate their wisdom while talking with his South African counterpart to understand that South Africa and Mozambique have historical ties, which cannot be broken because of xenophobia practiced by a particular group of South Africans and which undermines our freedom," said John Millet, one of the promoters of the initiative.
According to the official statistics, so far two Mozambicans are reported to have died as victims of the xenophobic attacks, and it is reported that over 100 Mozambicans who are affected returned to their homeland on Friday.
