BREAKING NEWS | Senzo Mchunu resumes duties as ANC NEC member

WATCH | Embattled Police Minister Senzo Mchunu has challenged KwaZulu-Natal Police Commissioner Lt Gen Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi to present evidence backing the allegations of wrongdoing against him. Full interview available on the SABC News YouTube channel.

South Africa's Democratic Alliance (DA) and Patriotic Alliance (PA) members of parliament have reportedly embarked on a secret mission to Israel. Publicly available details are scanty, but the trip appeared to include a visit to Israeli president, Isaac Herzog. Given the current frosty state of relations between Tel Aviv and Pretoria, this trip is likely to further strain relations within the already tense Government of National Unity (GNU) where the DA and the pro-Palestine African National Congress (ANC) are the largest parties. In an 11-minute Facebook video recorded in Israel and posted on around 6 April 2025, PA MP Ashley Sauls told his followers: "We've already met a governor; we're going to meet the president. We're not meeting the prime minister, Netanyahu, but we will meet the president, so keep your fingers crossed." The delegation included PA MPs Ashley Sauls and Millicent Mathopa, as well as DA MPs Nicholas Myburgh and Bridget Masango. Western Cape Provincial Parliament MP Brett Herron from the GOOD Party brought the trip to light, suggesting in a statement on Wednesday that the entire trip was deliberately shrouded in secrecy. In his statement, Brett said, "Details of the South African visit — such as who paid, who the delegation has met, its political objectives, whether the South African government or Parliament were informed and the date of its return — are unknown." The DA and PA have historically maintained a consistently pro-Israel stance. On South Africa's g*enocide case against Israel at the ICJ, both parties condemned ANC-led government's decision to drag Tel Aviv to court. The DA described the case as "one-sided and potentially damaging to South Africa’s international credibility" while the PA vocally opposed the case, calling it "misguided and politically motivated." In November 2023, the country's National Assembly adopted a motion calling for the government to "suspend all diplomatic relations with Israel until it agrees to a ceasefire.
