The word you are looking for is Pogrom.
po·grom n.
An organized, often officially encouraged massacre or persecution of a minority group, especially one conducted against Jews.
Though they're not Jewish, the word still fits.
These people need military heavy weapons and effective leadership if they are to stand a chance.

"massacre or persecution of a minority group"
I don't know if the poor qualify as a minority group in Zimbabwe. Maybe the poor self-employed qualify.
It's awful.
