Zimbabwe is repossessing land grabbed by former president Robert Mugabe's allies during a controversial agrarian reform programme.
Most of the land targeted for repossession is owned by Grace Mugabe, the former president’s widow, and allies in the ruling ZANU PF. Mr Mugabe was toppled in a coup in 2017 and died in Singapore last September.
