Top News: South Africa removed from UK’s red list

Cape Town – The UK removed South Africa and 10 other countries from its Covid -19 travel “Red List”.

United Nations secretary-general, Antonio Guterres, described the travel restrictions as “travel apartheid”, saying that South Africa was being punished for identifying a new variant.
