Could you share your source?
Edit: I can now see there appear to be two separate lists: one with 60 countries, including the “United Emirates”, and another with 57 countries and excluding UAE. Based on the criteria communicated, I think the UAE will be excluded from the list, but who knows. A minister earlier in the week explicitly referenced that the UAE would not be included.
It looks as though UAE IS on the banned list. See dha.gov.za which is the SA Home affairs website.
