SOUTHAFRICA POLICE ALLEDGEDLY FIRED RUBBER BULLETS: 67INJURED, YOUTHDAY MARCHERS.

• 67 Injured as Police Fire Rubber Bullets on Youth Day Marchers in South Africa.

A peaceful march to a Youth Day event in Potchefstroom, a town in South Africa’s North West province, ended in chaos when police fired rubber bullets at residents, injuring at least 67 people. The marchers, mostly from informal settlements, said they were walking to the stadium to raise concerns with Deputy President Paul Mashatile, but were met with force before reaching the venue. 

Community leader Daniel “Mokwena” Letsie compared the incident to the 1976 Soweto Uprising, when police killed hundreds of Black students protesting apartheid education policies. He said the victims of this year’s shooting were denied medical care and threatened with arrest if they sought treatment.
