🚰 🌆 Johannesburg: Day 10 of ongoing water crisis

Parts of Johannesburg have been without water for more than 10 days and it is unclear when the water supply will be returned.

Johannesburg Water, the utility company run by the city, said in a statement on Monday that part of the problem was due to increased demand due to the warmer weather.

The city has sent out water tankers to the affected areas.

In April, the manager of innovation and technology at Johannesburg Water said that it would take more than 10 years to upgrade and fix the city's water infrastructure.

Hundreds of thousands of residents are currently without water.

🇿🇦🇮🇱 South African citizens fighting in Israel will be arrested said the foreign minister

South Africa's Foreign Minister Naledi Pandor has said that its citizens who have been fighting in Gaza with the Israeli Defence Forces (IDF) will be arrested on their return to the country.

“I have already issued a statement alerting those who are South African and are fighting. We are ready. When you come home, we are going to arrest you,” she said.

It is not clear how many people this could affect.

South Africa had already warned last year that its citizens that they may be liable to prosecution if they fought with the IDF.

🚨🇿🇦 Nelson Mandela Bay jumps to 9th most homicidal city in the world

The Mexican Council for Public Security and Criminal Justice has published its annual ranking of the 50 most violent cities in the world – with Nelson Mandela Bay (Gqeberha) leaping past Cape Town and Durban to be ranked as the most dangerous city in South Africa.

South African cities also carry the dishonour of outranking many of the cities by the sheer number of murders on record. The only city with more murders than Johannesburg (3,084) is Haiti's Port-au-Prince (3,502).
