Egypt, France, Germany and Jordan warned Israel on Tuesday against annexing parts of the Palestinian territories, saying that doing so could have consequences for bilateral relations.
The Ahmed Kathrada Foundation has described the move by Israel to begin a process of annexation of Palestinian territory as a “declaration of war”. Israel plans to take about 30% of land in Palestine.
Mr. Chief Justice. We have had a long relationship and have always been candid with each other. It is with a heavy heart that I give you my opinion.
It remains to be seen whether Chief Justice Mogoeng Mogoeng will buckle under the mounting pressure and retract his statement on Israel. Several bodies have criticised the Chief Justice’s comments, with one having lodged a complaint with the Judicial Service Commission (JSC).
The United Nations says it is close to completing an investigation into a video that purportedly shows an official having sex in the back seat of a marked UN vehicle in Tel Aviv, Israel.
