The World Cup-winning Springboks on Thursday began a four-day homecoming tour in Pretoria, with President Cyril Ramaphosa hailing the team for uniting a country with a divisive past.
Zelensky appeared visibly caught off-guard when President Cyril Ramaphosa publicly declared that Ukraine was ready for an unconditional ceasefire. The statement—dropped like a diplomatic bombshell—came during joint remarks and stunned observers, raising questions about Zelensky's true stance on peace negotiations. As Ramaphosa positioned Africa as a key player in ending the Russia-Ukraine war, Zelensky remained tight-lipped, sparking a media frenzy and speculation about behind-the-scenes tensions

The Vatican has released the first solemn images of Pope Francis lying in repose inside his private chapel. Dressed in red vestments with a rosary in hand and a bishop’s mitre crowning his head, the 88-year-old pontiff rests in a wooden casket as Cardinal Pietro Parolin prays by his side. Francis passed away Monday night from a severe Stroke and heart failure. His funeral will be held Saturday at St. Peter’s Basilica. As Catholics mourn, Cardinal Kevin Farrell temporarily leads the Church during this time of sede vacante.

In a surprising statement, Hamas mourned Pope Francis’ passing and praised his firm stand on Gaza. The group lauded the late Pope for promoting interfaith dialogue and opposing genocide, racism, and war crimes—especially his vocal support for Palestinians during the war in Gaza. Hamas acknowledged Pope Francis’ nightly phone calls to Christians in Gaza and his repeated calls for a ceasefire. The statement emphasized joint efforts among faith communities to resist injustice, colonialism, and war, recognizing the Pope as a rare and powerful moral voice in a time of global conflict.
