South Africa accuses Israel at The Hague for genocide in Gaza
South Africa has filed a complaint against Israel at the International Court of Justice in The Hague, accusing it of genocide in Gaza. The International Criminal Court is already investigating war crimes and crimes against humanity by both Hamas and Israel, with no action taken so far. South Africa's submission claims Israel's acts and omissions in Gaza are genocidal, violating obligations under the Genocide Convention. Israel, since October 7, 2023, has allegedly failed to prevent genocide and prosecute public incitement to genocide. South Africa seeks provisional measures from The Hague to halt the war and protect Palestinian rights under the Genocide Convention. Israel, rejecting the accusation, criticizes South Africa's claim as factually and legally baseless, accusing it of cooperating with the terrorist organization Hamas. Israel's Foreign Ministry spokesperson Lior Haiat calls for the court to reject the request.

South Africa's Withdrawal from Israel: Relations at Rock Bottom
The South African Parliament has voted to close the Israeli embassy and suspend diplomatic relations with Israel until a permanent ceasefire is achieved in Gaza. The decision, driven by the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) and supported by the African National Congress (ANC), reflects South Africa's strong solidarity with Palestine, rooted in its own history of apartheid. The move has sparked controversy, with some supporting the pressure on Israel to negotiate, while others criticize it as undermining South Africa's role as a neutral mediator. The ANC is pushing for further actions, including an arrest warrant for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The decision has drawn mixed reactions from various political and social groups within South Africa.

European leaders at risk of ‘blackmail, hacking and compromise’ due to trade in data - report
A report by the Irish Civil Liberties Council (ICCL) warns of a 'European Security Crisis' due to the distribution of sensitive data through Real-Time Bidding (RTB) technology. The report highlights that RTB data, often including location and personal information, is being used to target EU military personnel and political decision-makers, posing risks of blackmail and hacking.
