Foreign workers are attacked in South Africa

Al Jazeera's Kalay Maistry reports on the attacks in South Africa on foreign workers.

Most of those targeted by the attacks are Zimbabweans and Somalis.

Maistry has spoken to a Somali victim of the violence in the north west province.

South African soldiers have shot and killed a man in a slum east of Johannesburg.

It happened as police were trying to suppress township violence that has targeted migrants in South Africa.

Meanwhile, several hundred people joined a march in protest at the attacks in Johannesburg.

At least 42 people have died, and thousands have fled their homes
