HARARE, Zimbabwe (CNN) — Less than a week after lifting a ban on aid agencies, Zimbabwe’s government has imposed harsh restrictions on humanitarian groups operating in the country, according to reports in the government-controlled media on Tuesday. According to The Herald newspaper, all aid agencies will have to submit to the government details of their humanitarian programs and funding, as well as their areas and modes of operation. On Friday, Harare lifted a ban on aid agencies that had been imposed ahead of the June 27 presidential run-off. President Robert Mugabe’s government accused some of the aid agencies of siding with the political opposition. |
