SA kombi drivers blockade Beitbridge border - Zimbabwe Situation

SA kombi drivers blockade Beitbridge border
By REX MPHISA
BEITBRIDGE Border Post was yesterday temporarily closed by the International Cross-Border Traders Association (ICBTA) and its affiliates pressing to have the Zimbabwean side of the border post opened.
After about three hours of picketing, the demonstrators dispersed although it is not clear whether police intervened.
Limpopo province police spokesman Colonel Moatshe Ngoepe did not respond to questions.
Zimbabwe has not opened its border to the public even after South Africa did so on February 15 when it eased lockdown restrictions.
Only returning residents, diplomats and permit holders are allowed through the border, which throughout the lockdown was open to international haulage vehicles.
