Zimbabweans living in Namibia are calling on the United States to immediately lift sanctions imposed on their country, saying they severely affect ordinary citizens. 

The community argues that the measures have worsened the country's economic performance and pushed many into hardships.

The Ministry of Environment, Forestry, and Tourism (MEFT) has announced that it granted approval for the export of 42 live white rhinoceroses to the United States.

The rhinos are privately owned and not government property, as only black rhinos are state-owned in Namibia.

President Hage Geingob has returned from the United Nations General Assembly held in New York, in the United States, and described the meeting as a success.
