White South African farmers claiming persecution at home seek refuge in Australia
More than 200 farmers from South Africa have applied for humanitarian visas in Australia after allegedly suffering attacks for being white, according to the Australian Home Affairs Ministry. The step was slammed by the South African opposition, which called Australia, and those willing to escape there, ‘racist.’ Last year, 82 people were killed in a record 423 farm attacks, there have been 109 attacks and more than 15 murders in 2018. The controversial reform may jeopardize commercial farming in the country, according to the Transvaal Agricultural Union of South Africa. South African government may repeat the mistake made by the government of Zimbabwe, which passed a state-sanctioned purge of white farmers in 1999-2000. The measure plunged the country into famine.
