As South Africa scrambles to understand a wave of unexplained flights carrying Palestinians, the ANC says the country must not become an “easy target” for forced depopulation. ANC 1st Deputy Secretary-General Nomvula Mokonyane met with Gift of the Givers founder Dr Imtiaz Sooliman to map out humanitarian cooperation following last week’s arrivals. Meanwhile, the party was rocked by another blow: former minister Dr Malusi Gigaba has voluntarily stepped aside from all ANC duties after being charged with corruption tied to Transnet’s massive locomotive deal. Phemelo unpacks these developments with ANC Acting Spokesperson Nonceba Mhlauli.
