Palestinian travellers eventually allowed to enter SA
Update: 2025-11-14
Description
153 Palestinian travellers have been allowed into South Africa after being initially denied entry at Johannesburg's OR Tambo International Airport. The group, who arrived on a charter flight from Kenya, were held at the airport due to incomplete documentation. But after intervention from the charity Gift of the Givers, they were admitted into the country. The travellers are eligible for 90-day visa-exempt travel and will be cared for by Gift of the Givers. The Border Management Authority says it will continue to uphold South Africa's legal and regulatory frameworks.
