As police intensify their efforts, more foreigners, including Zimbabwean nationals, are seeking to leave the country. The situation has prompted a significant number of individuals to arrange for repatriation amid the ongoing crackdown.
Bunge la Zimbabwe limepitisha muswada unaoweza kumruhusu Rais Emmerson Mnangagwa kuendelea madarakani hadi mwaka 2030, ukiongeza muda wa urais kutoka miaka mitano hadi saba. Muswada huo pia unashauri kuahirisha uchaguzi mkuu uliopangwa kwa mwaka 2028 hadi 2030 na kubadilisha mchakato wa uchaguzi wa rais kuwa wa wabunge badala ya wananchi. Hata hivyo, muswada huo unahitaji kupitishwa na Seneti kabla ya kuwa sheria. Wakosoaji wanasema hatua hiyo inalenga kumwezesha Mnangagwa kuendelea madarakani kwa muda mrefu zaidi.
