Kmart and Target remove kids’ toys from store shelves across Australia over choking concerns
A range of children’s toys is being urgently pulled from shelves at Kmart and Target stores across Australia due to serious choking hazards.
The 3D Mini Animal Toys manufactured by Zak Australia contain small parts that can detach, posing a significant risk to young children who may swallow the pieces.
The recalled toys have been available for purchase since June this year, meaning thousands of Australian families may have already bought the products.
