Summary:
South Africa has taken over the SADC chairship for 2026–2027, with Cyril Ramaphosa focusing on migration, regional cooperation, trade, infrastructure and power shortages. His remarks come amid anti-illegal-immigration protests, attacks on foreign nationals, migrant deaths and large-scale departures. Zimbabwe again called for sanctions to be lifted, while also securing a UN Security Council seat.
In Johannesburg, Helen Zille says the DA is targeting traditional ANC township strongholds, citing favourable polling, ActionSA defections and improving property confidence. Elsewhere, a court ordered faster ICASA rulings on election-broadcast disputes, the US Senate extended AGOA to December 2028 with annual eligibility reviews, and the Madlanga Commission heard WhatsApp evidence linking a cigarette company, a taxi boss and previous funding to Julius Malema.
