A small town in the Northern Cape might have unofficially dethroned Sandton as South Africa's richest square mile. Kathu - which means the town under the trees - is experiencing a boom as a result of mining in the area. The region has rich deposits of manganese, iron ore and zinc. The minerals are used the world over to build not only infrastructure, but also Artificial Intelligence data centres as well as electric vehicles. This report was filed by Ulrich Hendriks and voiced by Warren Engelbrecht.

Gauteng is reporting major progress in its fight against Foot-and-Mouth Disease, with new outbreaks dropping by more than 96%. The province says the improvement follows a rapid response that included increased vaccination, disease surveillance, movement controls and stronger cooperation with livestock farmers. More than 542,000 animals have been vaccinated, while 94% of cattle outside feedlots have received an initial vaccination. We spoke to Danisile Sathekge from the Office of the Gauteng MEC for Agriculture and Rural Development, Vuyiswa Ramokgopa, to unpack the latest developments and what happens next.

A 21-year-old man was allegedly stabbed to death in Refilwe, Cullinan, after a group of youths splashed a 53-year-old man with water on Spring Day. Police say the older man has been arrested in connection with the killing. The tragedy has sparked renewed community outrage over the traditional September first water fights, which residents claim have shifted from a playful custom into deliberate harassment of motorists and the elderly. For reaction we spoke to Clinical Psychologist, Dr. Kgamadi Kometsi.
