Millions affected by Zimbabwe slum crackdown
‘Drive Out Trash’ campaign continues, leaving 700,000 homeless or jobless

HARARE, Zimbabwe - Zimbabwe's government on Thursday announced the completion of a crackdown on slums and street traders that left some 700,000 people without homes or livelihoods. But the opposition said demolitions continued.

The campaign has sparked domestic and international criticism, with a U.N. envoy last week presenting a report condemning the crackdown and calling for urgent assistance to help those who have lost their homes and jobs. The envoy said another 2.4 million people have been affected by the crackdown.

On Thursday, state radio broadcast statements from Vice President Joyce Mujuru that "Operation Murambatsvina (Drive Out Trash) is now complete," and from Deputy Information Minister Bright Matonga, promising compensation for those affected by the crackdown who "followed legal channels."
