#SayHisName, PLEASE SAY HIS NAME. Obaida Akram. A kid. The Israeli military arrested him three times & today at a protest they murdered him with a bullet to the ♥️, before his 18th birthday. All he dreamt of was being a cook. Of being free. Please say his name. RIP #Obaida

Humanitarian update via UNRWA: According to OHCHR, of the 200 Palestinians who have been killed in Gaza, 116 are civilians, including three pregnant women, two disabled persons, and 61 children, of which 18 were UNRWA students. #gaza

Instead of going to work, people across Palestine have been protesting. Israeli snipers have the green light. In the small village of Nabi Saleh - only 600 people - there have been 13 people shot with live ammunition so far just today!!! #PalestineOnStrike #SaveSheikhJarrah

A South African school (Redhill School) told students not to talk about Palestine or face school censure This is the response they got this morning outside the school premises ✊🏿✊🏿 from their own students. The irony does not escape one 🤔

The story was written under very difficult conditions. Our two journalists, Magnificent Mndebele & Cebelihle Mbuyisa were detained and tortured by eSwatini security forces for merely practising journalism.

Anyone seen an explanation of the differing roles played by taxi drivers/associations in KZN vs. in EC, GP and other provinces in the last week or so? Seems that in KZN taxi bosses haven’t intervened to protect their interests in the same way we’ve seen elsewhere. Why is that?
