SOUTH AFRICA ILLEGAL GOLD MINERS TRAPPED

epa11823204 Members of the rescue services use heavy rescue equipment during the official rescue mission of an unknown number of miners near the entrance to a disused gold mine shaft in Stilfontein, around 150 kilometers southwest of Johannesburg, South Africa, 14 January 2025. A South African court has ordered the official rescue attempts to begin as an unknown number of illegal gold miners, or Zama Zama, are trapped underground, of which 10 miners have been rescued. The number of Zama Zama to have died underground has already reached 109 according to an attorney at Lawyers for Human Rights. The miners are armed and form part of a wider syndicate-driven gold mining operation that often uses disused commercial gold mines to search for gold.  EPA/KIM LUDBROOK
