 It's almost exactly a year now since the October 7th attack which saw Hamas gunmen launch an unprecedented attack on Israel from Gaza - the deadliest in Israel's history, killing about 1,200 people. Hamas also fired thousands of rockets.  Hamas took more than 250 others to Gaza as hostages. Israel immediately began a massive campaign of air strikes on targets in Gaza, in response to the Hamas attack. A year of relentless Israeli attacks on the enclave have killed more than 41,700 people and wounded almost 100,000, with thousands still missing under the rubble of destroyed buildings. Israel recently opened a second war front against Hezbollah in Lebanon, first with airstrikes which have killed and wounded thousands and now pursuing a ground incursion into southern Lebanon. Iran in turn launched dozens of missiles into Israel on TUESDAY NIGHT, another escalation in a tit-for-tat cycle that is pushing the Middle East closer to a regional war. Israel warned that the Iran attack would have "repercussions." To look at the Middle East conflict one year on, Bongiwe Zwane spoke to Naeem Jeenah, Senoir Reseacher at the Mapungubwe Institute for Strategic Reflection (MISTRA)

Middle East conflict: No end in sight one year on

The furore that has erupted over the impending budget cuts to basic education has uncovered how this will disproportionately affect vulnerable populations, exacerbating existing inequalities and undermining South Africa's Constitutional guarantee of the right to basic education. The major concerns highlighted so far include critical issues such as teacher shortages, overcrowded classrooms, and inadequate scholar transport and infrastructure. Little has been said about how the move will negatively affect the school nutrition programme. The Healthy Living Alliance - HEALA - is concerned for the programme, which provides 9 million school-going children with meals in poorer primary and secondary schools. The Alliance is now convening a conference to come up with solutions on how to strengthen and expand the school nutrition programme and ensure food justice for all children. Bongiwe Zwane spoke to HEALA head of communications, Zukiswa Zimela

Not In My Name International has welcomed the sentencing of serial rapist Nkosinathi Phakathi by the High Court sitting in Palm Ridge. Phakathi received a staggering 42 life sentences for rape, along with 791 years and six months of direct imprisonment for charges including kidnapping, compelling minors to witness sexual acts, assault, sexual assault, and theft. His crimes spanned from 2012 to 2021, during which he terrorized multiple women in Ekurhuleni, with many of his victims being minors, the youngest just 9 years old. The Not In My Name Social Justice Movement has expressed hope that this severe sentence will serve as a deterrent to potential perpetrators. Bongiwe Zwane spoke to  NotInMy international Secretary-General, Themba Masango
