A group of peoples picketed at the Zimbabwe House in the United Kingdom (UK) to demonstrate against the planned deportation of some Zimbabweans.

Reports suggest that Zimbabwe and the United Kingdom have struck a deal for the deportation of over 100 Zimbabwean nationals who were convicted of various offences in Britain.

A meeting on 23 June between Zimbabwe’s Foreign Affairs  ministry and the British embassy resolved that a flight would be chartered from London to Harare for the purposes of “returning Zimbabwean nationals with no right to remain in the UK”.

A notice from the British Embassy in Harare, dated 30 June 2021, states that it was agreed during a meeting between the UK and Zimbabwe that 100 people would be identified for deportation.
