What did South African anti-apartheid activists once think about Israel and Zionism? The answer is more complicated than most seem to think. Dr. Asher Lubotzky, research fellow at the University of Houston's Department of Political Science, takes us through the extraordinary—and often surprising—relationship between the South African anti-apartheid movement and Israel, from the birth of both countries in 1948 through the Cold War, the end of apartheid, and into the present. Lubotzky is the author of Shifting Solidarities: The South African Anti-Apartheid Movement's Perception of Zionism. In the early years, some of the movement's most prominent activists actually supported Israel. Jewish and non-Jewish communists saw the new Jewish state as an anti-fascist, socialist project. African nationalists found parallels between Zionism and their own struggle for national liberation. And Israel itself was actively reaching out to anti-apartheid movements in Africa. So how did that relationship turn into today's association of Israel with apartheid? The answer involves the Six-Day War, Israel's growing military ties with Pretoria, the Cold War, South Africa's Jewish community, and shifting ideas about colonialism and national liberation. It's a fascinating history of how political alliances change—and how today's certainties can look very different when viewed through the lens of the past.

Zambia's President Hakainde Hichilema has been re-elected for a second term. Results released by the election commission in the early hours of Tuesday this week , revealed that Hichilema received roughly around 60% of valid votes, compared to the 38 percent of his main challenger, Brian Mundubile. His re-election gives him a fresh mandate to continue his economic programme, but also brings renewed expectations from voters, who say the benefits of that recovery have yet to reach their households. To unpack this Bongiwe Zwane spoke to Tendai Mbanje , election and governance expert from the Uninveristy of Pretoria

AfriForum het 'n aansoek vir minagting van die hof teen die EFF en sy leier, Julius Malema, by die Hooggeregshof in Pretoria ingedien. Die organisasie se uitvoerende hoof, Kallie Kriel, sê die aansoek kom ná die EFF en Malema se hernieude oproepe tot onwettige grondbesetting, ten spyte van 'n hofbevel wat AfriForum in 2017 verkry het wat hulle verbied om sulke uitlatings te maak. Hy sê tydens 'n openbare EFF-lesing by die Universiteit van Limpopo verlede maand het Malema verwys na jongmense wat eendag 'n plaas in Stellenbosch sal betree en beset:
Die Soil of Africa-burgerlike beweging sê die onlangse uitspraak deur die hof in Pretoria oor die bestuur en administrasie van die Nasionale Finansiële Hulpskema vir Studente is baie belangrik.

Die beweging se woordvoerder, Luzuko Sofute, sê daar mag geen viktimisasie van studente of instellings wees weens die bestuurs- en leierskapgeskille nie:

Europe rose 33% to 450,000 and other markets 97% to 280,000, while North America fell 27% to 140,000 as the US decline widened beyond 30%.ULTIUM CELLS TO RESTART OHIO OUTPUTUltium Cells restarts battery-cell production next week at its Warren, Ohio plant after a seven-month shutdown blamed on falling EV demand and the cancelled $7,500 federal tax credit. The GM–LG joint venture site makes large-format NCMA pouch cells with over 45GWh annual capacity for nearly all GM EVs, and expects headcount to reach 1,400 after cutting roughly 1,330 jobs at closure.VOLKSWAGEN OPENS ID.3 NEO UK ORDERSVolkswagen opened UK orders for the ID.3 Neo on 13 August 2026 from £33,080, or £31,580 after the Government's £1,500 Electric Car Grant, with 50, 58 and 79 kWh batteries giving up to 390 miles and DC charging from 100 kW to 183 kW.

The site draws entirely from the grid with no solar canopies or Megapack storage, and includes a 416-square-foot building with two restrooms, vending machines and water fountains open 24 hours.CHARGING FAILURES HIT SIX-YEAR LOWPublic charging failures fell to 12% in the second quarter from 14% a year earlier and 19% in 2023 and 2024, the lowest in the six-year history of JD Power's study, which credited faster chargers and larger destination-style sites.

The airport handles almost 18 million passengers a year, and XCharge argues electrification reduces the logistical and environmental risks of moving and storing liquid fuel around aircraft operations.One flag: the GAC headline says late 2026, but the copy says "late next year" — from an August 2026 dateline those are a year apart.

Die DA het die uitspraak van die Hooggeregshof in Pretoria verwelkom waarvolgens sleutelaspekte van Okosa se verkiesingsuitsaairegulasies ongrondwetlik en onwettig verklaar is. Ashor Sarupen van die DA sê die hof het verligting toegestaan deur 'n dringende meganisme te skep vir geskille oor politieke advertensies en partyverkiesingsuitsendings wat afgekeur is. Hy sê daar is ook bevind dit is onwettig en ongrondwetlik om lede van die publiek en openbare belange-organisasies uit te sluit om politieke uitsendings uit te daag of af te keur:

Reza Shah of Iran died in exile in a house in Johannesburg in 1944. Eighty-two years later, an Iranian-born South African economist stood up at BNC#9 to explain why that strange, half-forgotten history still shapes how Pretoria thinks about Tehran, and why the war now raging between Iran, Israel and the United States might be the moment historians look back on as the start of America's retreat from the Middle East. Dr Iraj Abedian takes you from a British-orchestrated abdication and a CIA-backed coup, through Sasol's Iranian shareholder and Mandela's visits to Tehran, to a chessboard being redrawn "literally hourly." His verdict on Washington's war plan: a swamp, not a surrender.
The Zambians are today voting to elect a new president. The current President Hakainde Hichilema is seeking a re-election for the second term.

However, the cost of living remains a major concern for voters. Hichilema's main challenger is opposition candidate Brian Mundubile.

El ejercicio del recuerdo no es igual al ejercicio del archivo. ¿Qué busca quien guarda información y material en el presente? ¿Qué obtiene el que rasca en su memoria las escenas del pasado? Ese rescoldo es la base de Pretoria, un texto de la autora mexicana Valeria Luiselli publicado en junio de 2010 en la revista Letras Libres. Luiselli, conocida por hacer del archivo el cimiento de su obra, acá se permite retomar la perplejidad de su preadolescencia en Sudáfrica para mostrar la brecha entre su vivencia y el marco histórico.

His father rejected him. His grandmother changed everything. Brad Ryan spent seven and a half years driving across America with his 85-year-old grandmother, visiting all 63 national parks, and quietly healing the wounds his coming out left behind. What started as an adventure became something neither of them expected: a reckoning with family, identity, and the stories gay men tell themselves about who will ever truly accept them. Brad joins Rick to talk about what happens when you stop waiting for the people who hurt you and start showing up for the ones who show up for you. Key Takeaways: Why Brad didn't come out until college and what his father's reaction cost himHow a camping trip in the Smoky Mountains became the turning point with his grandmotherWhy gay men build elaborate stories about rejection that don't match realityWhat intergenerational connection offers gay men that their own community often can'tHow curiosity instead of judgment transforms even the most broken family relationshipsWhy healing doesn't always look like confrontation — sometimes it looks like a road trip About Brad Brad Ryan is a veterinarian, wildlife conservationist, social media influencer, and writer from southeastern Ohio. He earned his BA from Miami University in Ohio, an MSc in mammalian biology from the University of Pretoria in South Africa, and a DVM/MPH combined degree from The Ohio State University, specializing in wildlife medicine and veterinary public health. For Brad, storytelling is a vehicle for healing—rooted in empathy, inspired by nature, and driven by a desire to help others feel seen and connected. As a keynote speaker, he champions LGBTQ+ inclusion in the outdoors, eliminating stigma around mental health, and the protection of wildlife Connect With Brad Website Instagram Facebook LinkedIn Hey Guys, Check This Out!

According to Lowvelder, the incident occurred on the H1-2 near Skukuza on 28 July. In the video, taken by Pretoria resident Azille Engelbrecht, two elephants can be seen facing off against each other while several park visitors watch the interaction from their vehicles. While most of the vehicles remained stationary, allowing the natural interaction to play out without interference, one delivery driver decided to push past the other guests.

Yen resigned in February and died on March 12 at the age of 53. The Control Yuan says Yang seriously violated (違反) rules for public officials and should face a disciplinary review (懲戒審查). Yang denies any wrongdoing. TRUMP VOWS HEAVY STRIKES ON IRAN AFTER US INTERCEPTS BALLISTIC MISSILE ATTACK ON FORCES IN JORDAN U.S. President Donald Trump has promised heavy strikes on Iran after Iran's Revolutionary Guard fired several ballistic missiles (彈道飛彈) at U.S. military sites in Jordan on Tuesday. All of the missiles were intercepted (攔截). The attack ended a pause in the fighting. It came as U.S. and Saudi fighter jets carried out joint strikes on Iran-linked militia targets in Iraq. Iraq's Popular Mobilisation Forces says at least 20 people were killed. Iran says it does not want the conflict (衝突) to grow, but more countries are now becoming involved. Kate Fisher reports from Washington. Kenya elephants suspected to have been poisoned Wildlife officials in Kenya say 15 elephants may have been poisoned (中毒;被下毒) after eating tomatoes contaminated with cyanide (氰化物). The elephants died over the past month near Amboseli National Park in southern Kenya. Authorities have not said who may be responsible. In the past, some farmers have been suspected of poisoning elephants to protect their crops. The Kenya Wildlife Service says the contamination could also affect livestock (牲畜) in the area. Officials say the toxic substances (有毒物質) found in the elephants do not pose an immediate risk to people. That was the I.C.R.T. EZ News, I'm _. -- Hosting provided by SoundOn

Die uittredende hoof van die Suid-Afrikaanse Nasionale Padagentskap, Reginald Demana, erken die agentskap was nie opgewasse om die padonderhoud-tender van 9,5-miljard Suid-Afrikaanse rand aan ʼn paneel van 20 maatskappye toe te ken nie. Die Hooggeregshof in Pretoria het die tender ongrondwetlik en onregmatig verklaar nadat twee konstruksiemaatskappye, BCB Solutions en Botle Ba Afrika Roads, Sanral se besluit om hul bod te verwerp, uitgedaag het. Demana sê die agentskap het in verskeie hofsake tweede gekom weens probleme met sy verkrygingsprosesse en -praktyke:

Ep. 148: Dice che le vecchie zie all'Olgiata non avrebbero mai «l'ascella pezzata» e che Roma ha una capacità «abbandonica» di farti «stare tra le rovine». In questa intervista con Malcom Pagani, Michele Masneri ripercorre le sue radici, diviso fin dall'infanzia tra i nonni paterni "fattivi" e una nonna materna araldica dedita a genealogie e film di Visconti. Fuggito dalla "Pretoria" di Brescia e dalle mitomanie di Gorizia per approdare alla Capitale, il giornalista riflette sulla fauna letteraria e sociale del nostro tempo, partendo dai fari intramontabili del Novecento: dall'Ennio Flaiano capace di non farsi mai inglobare nel "canone" dei giusti, all'Alberto Arbasino "lord inglese" ed esemplare per il suo 100% di presenze in Parlamento. Tra aneddoti leggendari, come i sadici colloqui telefonici di un'estate fantasma con l'ingegnere Carlo De Benedetti, Masneri osserva le nevrosi dell'epoca contemporanea: dall'abitudine di schierarsi in "batteria" per paura di una shitstorm sui social all'esasperazione della purezza morale a tutti i costi.

Namibië se president, Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah, het mense aangespoor om 67 minute te wy aan ander wanneer die wêreld vandag Nelson Mandeladag vier. Sy het Vrydag in Pretoria gesê dit vereer Nelson Mandela se 67 jaar van diens en toewyding aan geregtigheid, gelykheid en menswaardigheid. Nandi-Ndaitwah vra mense om sy nalatenskap te eerbiedig deur deernisvolle, betekenisvolle optrede en 'n gemeenskaplike toewyding aan die bou van 'n regverdiger, vreedsamer en meer inklusiewe samelewing:
President Cyril Ramaphosa sê Suid-Afrika en Namibië moet hul samewerking versterk om ekonomiese groei en gedeelde ontwikkeling te bevorder. Hy en die Namibiese president, Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah, was medevoorsitters van die vierde bi-nasionale kommissie in Pretoria. Suid-Afrika en Namibië het hul bilaterale betrekkinge versterk deur sewe ooreenkomste te onderteken, wat indiensneming en arbeid, kapasiteitsbou in openbare administrasie, bilaterale lugdienste, regsamewerking, korrektiewe dienste, geslagsgelykheid en die bemagtiging van vroue dek, asook 'n ekonomiese vennootskap tussen die Namibiese Kamer van Handel en Nywerheid en die Suid-Afrikaanse Kamer van Handel en Nywerheid.
Die PDM doen 'n beroep op presidente Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah en Cyril Ramaphosa om die oplossing van die langdurige Oranjerivier-grensgeskil tydens hul bilaterale gesprekke in Suid-Afrika te prioritiseer. Die twee leiers is tans in Pretoria vir die vierde Namibië-Suid-Afrika Binasionale Kommissie. PDM-leier McHenry Venaani sê aan Kosmos 94.1 Nuus dat Namibiërs vordering met die kwessie verwag, wat sedert onafhanklikheid onopgelos gebly het, en dring daarop aan dat die regering nie langer optrede kan vertraag nie.
AfriForum sê hy sal sy regsgeding teen die energiereguleerder, Nersa, oor Eskom se bykomende elektrisiteitstariefverhoging van 54-miljard Suid-Afrikaanse rand voortsit. Die dringende aansoek is van die hofrol verwyder en sal nou later in die Hooggeregshof in Pretoria aangehoor word. Dalena Beyers van AfriForum voer aan Nersa het versuim om redes vir die goedkeuring van die verhoging te verskaf tot net voor die verhoor, wat kommer wek oor deursigtigheid en die besluitnemingsproses:

Danny, Ashy and Chris look back at round two of the Nation's Championship with the north and south both on six wins each. Scotland scored four tries and pushed the Boks all the way in Pretoria. Did they show the England coaching team the best way to attack the double world champions? Danny reacts to Marcus Smith's cameo at scrum-half against Fiji and we look ahead to England's trip to Argentina as the injured Alex Mitchell is replaced by Raffi Quirke. We also look at the logistics issues hampering the tournament and discuss whether some teams are getting an unfair advantage. Will Jordan broke the All Blacks try record at the weekend, but does he make our all-time Nee Zealand back three? The game of the weekend sees Ireland head to Eden Park. Can Andy Farrell's side finally end the All Blacks' 32 year, 52 Test, unbeaten home record?
Welcome back to the History of South Africa podcast with me your host, Des Latham. Episode 283 and it's 1885. And boy! Do we have a plethora of happenings to report. This is a year before the discovery of gold in the Transvaal, and global events are full of war, innovation, ethnic carnage, economic ups and downs, world firsts, medicine, and a dose of snot and trauma. The year 1885 opened with a strange and ironic trial by fire across England, balancing state-sanctioned progress against lawless destruction. In January, Irish rebels shattered the peace by detonating dynamite inside Westminster Hall and the Tower of London, raining literal fire and brimstone upon the ancient symbols of British authority. Amidst this chaotic violence, a far more orderly kind of incineration took place. That same year, the widowed painter Jeanette Pickersgill of London, a lady "well known in literary and scientific circles," became the first person to be legally cremated in England by the Cremation Society at Woking, Surrey. It was a classic Victorian paradox: while the state scrambled to suppress the lawless Irish bombs threatening to burn the old order down, it was simultaneously finalizing the bureaucratic regulations on how its most respectable citizens could legally burn themselves to ashes. In Southern Africa, 1885 saw two major geopolitical moves - In March the United Kingdom Established the Bechuanaland Protectorate - modern day Botswana. The second event was the incorporation of the tiny Boer republic of Stellaland into Bechuanaland. It was all part of a grand plan partly initiated by Transvaal president Paul Kruger. He had sailed to London in 1884 and met Secretary of State of the Colonies Lord Derby where the two struck a deal. Derby would drop the British claim to suzerainty over the Transvaal and reduce the Transvaal's debt, and reduce the powers of the British representative in Pretoria, in exchange Kruger agreed to decrease tariffs on imported goods and to drop claims to Stellaland and Goshen, thus opening up Cecil John Rhodes' important North Road. The agreement promised a rare season of peace and stability for the fractured region. Yet, its true survival rested entirely on whether both sides would honor the principles they had so recently espoused. They did not. Or to be more accurate, Pro-Boer and Pro-Imperial activists did not. Transvaal commandos rode into Zululand and into Bechuanaland, cocking a snook at their own leadership. On the British side, all manner of colonials looked askance at the Kruger/Derby Deal. One was missionary and humanitarian, Reverend John Mackenzie, a prominent member of the London Missionary Society. He had spent most of his adult life proselytizing amongst the Tswana people at Kuruman and Shoshong. Mackenzie was the Boer's arch enemy, denouncing incursions from the pulpit in South Africa, then back in the UK when he was on leave in 1882 and 1883. The Road to the North worried him because of how dominant the Transvaal Boers were in this region.As King Leopold of Belgium, the French, Bismarck of Germany and others met to finalise who got what in Africa, the British Foreign Office suddenly woke up. They were concerned about the Transvaal and German South West Africa. The British Government did a volte-farce, and sent a powerful army up the North Road. Four thousand regular troops, including the famous Inniskilling Dragoons cavalry regiment from Ulster in Northern Ireland, along with three observation balloons, all headed towards Stellaland from Kimberley.
Andy Burke, Tom English, Peter Wright and Colin Gregor discuss Scotland's second round match against South Africa in the Nations Championship. Plus we hear from Scotland head coach Gregor Townsend, Scotland captain Sione Tuipulotu and South Africa's Handre Pollard.
Ashy and Chris go inside the England camp ahead of the must-win Test against Fiji. After the defeat at Ellis Park, Ashy quizzes skipper Jamie George on the England gameplan against the Boks and why they keep repeating the same mistakes. Centre Henry Slade is also on the pod to discuss his return to the starting XV and England's state of flux in midfield. Can Slade replicate the influence he's had at Exeter for his country? Finn Russell is back for Scotland. Ashy and Chris look ahead to their clash in Pretoria and react to Louis Rees-Zammit dropping to the Wales bench. Why hasn't the Welsh winger managed to replicate the form eh showed before his NFL stint?
Anti-immigrant protests in South Africa have raised difficult questions about race, class, and who gets targeted during waves of xenophobic anger. While Black African migrants have faced growing hostility, Chinese migrants and other foreign communities have largely avoided the same scrutiny. This week, Eric, Cobus, and Géraud examine why that is, and what it reveals about poverty, politics, and state dysfunction in South Africa. They also unpack a new set of China-South Africa trade protocols that could quietly expand bilateral trade, especially as Pretoria's relationship with Washington becomes more strained. Finally, they reflect on recent conversations in Nairobi, South Africa, Beijing, and New York about China, Africa, and the Global South's place in a rapidly changing world order.

Retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong explores the disturbing case of Oscar Pistorius, the South African Olympic sprinter known worldwide as the ""Blade Runner."" On Valentine's Day 2013, Pistorius fired four shots through a locked bathroom door in his Pretoria home and killed his girlfriend, model and advocate Reeva Steenkamp. What investigators uncovered behind the world's most celebrated story of perseverance was a pattern of recklessness, rage, and control that had been hiding in plain sight for years. Candice examines how a childhood defined by loss, a family philosophy of denial, and a deeply conditioned relationship between fear and firearms converged to bring one of sport's greatest icons to one of its most shocking falls from grace.Audible subscribers can listen to all episodes of Killer Psyche ad-free right now.
