🇿🇦/🇵🇸 The National Assembly of South Africa has approved a resolution for the closure of Israel’s embassy in Pretoria over the ongoing genocide in Gaza.
The motion, which was presented by the leader of the Economic Freedom Fighters party, Julius Malema, was approved by Parliament on November 21 with 248 votes in favor and 91 votes against. It will now have to be approved by President Cyril Ramaphosa in order to come into force.
“We call on the Ramaphosa ANC government to shut down the Israeli embassy in Pretoria and end all diplomatic relations with that brutal apartheid Israeli regime. We call on all the world to isolate Israel by boycott, disinvestment and sanctions until they end their military occupation and allow Palestinian refugees in surrounding countries like Lebanon and Syria, the right of return,” Malema said in parliament last week.
The ruling African National Congress (ANC) had announced that it would support the motion “given the unfolding atrocities in occupied Palestine”.

Israel has been ‘above’ international law ever since its inception
After failing several times, the members of the UN Security Council were able to reach a compromise and adopt a resolution on November 15, almost 40 days after the Israeli war began on October 7, demanding “urgent and extended” humanitarian “pauses” in Gaza.
However, as was expected, Israel refused to implement it. Instead it negotiated a deal with Palestinian resistance movement Hamas under Qatar’s mediation and agreed to halt its offensives in Gaza for four days in exchange of hostages.

While previous years have witnessed improvements in the standards of human rights, progressive legislature, and access to medication abortion, many women and girls still encounter insurmountable obstacles in seeking abortion care.
According to the report, abortion “remains criminalized and heavily regulated in most countries.” This disproportionately affects poor and working-class women, as well as those residing in remote areas where healthcare is less accessible.

The history of conflicts reveals this ugly truth. Thus, we call for a stop to the war in Palestine and elsewhere. And demand a just peace,” argued Judy Ann Miranda, secretary general of Partido Manggagawa (PM). PM is among the groups that participated in an activity on November 25.
