Last update: 8 hours ago

Drinking Water Alarm: SANBWA is warning that South Africa’s bottled and “refill” water market is being undermined by unregulated refill businesses that may pre-fill and seal bottles for sale without proper traceability, source testing, or consistent sanitation—raising fears that contamination could go undetected. Kruger Security Tightened: After the stabbing deaths of a couple celebrating a birthday at Kruger National Park, SANParks says the incident is unprecedented in its 100-year history and is beefing up security as a manhunt continues. Immigration Protests Escalate: Government ministers are set for urgent talks on immigration enforcement and a national plan to tackle xenophobia, as Durban’s mayor presses Home Affairs to act over foreign nationals camping outside offices. Ratings Boost: Moody’s upgraded South Africa’s outlook to positive, citing improving fiscal performance and structural reforms. Local Politics: Rise Mzansi’s Lukhona Mnguni has entered the Johannesburg mayoral race, pitching himself as “incorruptible” amid service delivery frustrations.
