South Africa defiant after US threatens 'consequences' over refugee centre raid
South Africa refutes US accusations of harassment over refugee centre raid amidst rising tensions. The US claims that South Africa published its officials' passport details, warning of "severe consequences." This follows a raid expelling Kenyan workers illegally in South Africa. President Trump's administration is prioritizing asylum for South Africa's Afrikaner community, citing persecution claims.
