Looted promises: Communities affected by mining cry out for accountability

There are no signs of de-escalation as Iran and Israel trade new missile strikes for a ninth day. There are reports THIS MORNING of an explosion in the central Iranian city of Isfahan, home to Iran's largest nuclear research complex. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi says Iran's nuclear programme is peaceful and his country remains open to diplomacy, but Israel's attacks must stop first. Israel's military chief Eyal Zamir, on the other hand is warning that his country should be prepared for a "prolonged campaign" against Iran as Israeli attacks on the country enter their ninth day. Bongiwe Zwane spoke to Naeem Jeenah from the Mapungubwe Institute For Strategic Reflection - MISTRA

In a damning report, Public Protector Kholeka Gcaleka has given Eastern Cape COGTA MEC Zolile Williams 90 days to act against officials involved in the R15 million Leeseyton Sports Field in the Enoch Mgijima Municipality. If you don't remember this story, let me refresh your memory a little bit. It was an open field with what appeared to be grandstands yet no athletics tracks, soccer field, ablution facilities etc. in sight. Remember how the picture of a ribbon that was to be cut yet there was nothing there drew outrage from many including political parties. The Public protector has found the tender process was flawed and was awarded to the fourth-highest bidder after a shortened advertising period. Bongiwe Zwane spoke to Public Protector South Africa spokesperson , Khulu Phasiwe
