- DRC calls tribunal after 17,015 violations report on Goma, Bukavu
DRC says a report documents 17,015 violations in Goma and Bukavu, backing calls for a tribunal, more judges and transitional justice. DRC officials say a newly presented report documenting alleged human rights violations in Goma and Bukavu will be used to push for new accountability and justice measures, including a proposed international tribunal as cited by 7sur7 . The report, presented at the close of a workshop in Kinshasa, cites 17,015 cases in the two eastern cities, including allegations of killings, abductions, and torture or other inhuman treatment. The document was compiled by experts from sector ministries, civil society and NGOs, according to the organisers. The documented violations were committed by the M23/AFC , according to the findings shared at the event. Human Rights Minister Samuel Mbemba said recommendations include advocating for an international criminal tribunal for crimes committed in the DRC, strengthening defence and security capacity, increasing the number of magistrates, and establishing transitional justice mechanisms. Prime Minister Judith Suminwa Tuluka said she would take the recommendations “to the highest level,” according to organisers. The announcement lands amid heightened international scrutiny of abuses in North and South Kivu. The UN Human Rights Office has previously warned that serious violations in the region by multiple parties may amount to war crimes and crimes against humanity. Authorities also linked the reported violations to displacement pressures. Recent reporting has placed overall displacement in the DRC at more than 7 million, amid recurring conflict and instability in the east.

- Joefes Drops 22-Track Album ‘The Art of Gengetone’
Joefes releases a 22-track double-disc album, showcasing his artistic growth and reaffirming Gengetone’s place in Kenya’s music scene. Kenyan artiste Joefes has released a new 22-track album titled The Art of Gengetone , a project he describes as proof that the Gengetone sound remains vibrant within Kenya’s urban music landscape. Born Getugi Nyamweya, Joefes says his career has been shaped by gradual development, consistency and a strong connection to street culture. He adopted the stage name “Joefes” while still in high school, where he first explored performance alongside frequent collaborator iPhoolish during drama and music festivals. Although his mother supported his artistic ambitions, he recalls that his father did not initially embrace his interest in music. That opposition, he says, strengthened his resolve to pursue music seriously despite limited resources. His enrolment at Pwani University marked a turning point. There, he met producer Mophart, who offered him recording opportunities that expanded his creative and technical skills. He was later signed by Black Market Records before finishing university, a deal he says provided him with equipment, studio access and financial stability. Joefes’ first project, Metamorphosis , served as an open-ended experiment. With his first access to a professional studio, he recorded without a specific concept or direction. He later released his debut video Ebibengi , though financial constraints slowed his early progress. Over time, he says he has developed confidence in his sound, writing approach and collaborative process. These experiences form the foundation of The Art of Gengetone , which he describes as a structured response to critics of the genre. “Gengetone is the voice of the street. You can’t kill it,” he says. The double-disc album reflects two sides of his identity. The first disc features his alter ego, Mr Nun, while the second presents Joefes in his familiar style. The format allows him to balance commentary, humour, introspection and high-energy themes while maintaining the core elements of Gengetone. The album includes collaborations with Teslah, Wamagui, Fathermoh, Exray Taniua, iPhoolish, Kushman, Unspoken Salaton, Vic West, Steph Kapela, Moraa and others. Joefes says each artiste was chosen based on creative chemistry rather than convenience. The project covers a wide range of themes, from ambition in Million Dollar Ndoto and male vulnerability in Kuona Dust , to nightlife energy in Gideon Boots and Dunda , narrative storytelling in Gondi and Za Lunch , and social commentary in Chorea Madawa . He notes that his writing is grounded in real-life experiences. Joefes says Gideon Boots was the most challenging track to complete, adding that the version released is still a demo as he awaits the master from producer Vic West. He cites Kuona Dust as his personal favourite, describing it as his most honest depiction of men’s struggles.

Foodborne Illnesses Declared a National Disaster in South Africa: 22 children dead Nov 21, 2024 Facebook X (Twitter) WhatsApp Copy link Minister of Justice and Constitutional Development, Thembi Simelane, during a media briefing held in Pretoria on Thursday. The National Disaster Management Centre has declared foodborne illnesses a national disaster after at least 22 children reportedly died recently, including six in Soweto. Minister Velenkosini Hlabisa confirmed the disaster declaration following deaths across the country. At a briefing in Pretoria, he shared updates on interventions announced by President Cyril Ramaphosa. Agriculture Minister John Steenhuisen linked the issue to terbufos, a pesticide possibly imported illegally. He noted differences in appearance between the seized chemical and locally produced terbufos, raising suspicions of cross-border origins. The chemical, often found with aldicarb—banned in 2016—was identified in three Soweto spaza shops during inspections. Minister of Health Dr. Aaron Motsoaledi pointed out that terbufos is sold widely, including at taxi ranks and street markets. He cautioned against solely targeting spaza shops, as the issue extends beyond them. Small Business Development Minister Stella Ndabeni-Abrahams echoed this, noting South Africa has over 150,000 spaza shops, with only a small fraction implicated in investigations.

Top diplomats from France, Germany, and the European Union are rallying to intensify support for Sudan during a crucial conference in Paris, marking one year since the outbreak of the devastating conflict in the African nation. French Foreign Minister Stéphane Séjourné, alongside German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock, EU's top diplomat Josep Borrell, and Commissioner for Crisis Management Janez Lenarčič, spearhead the funding initiative. The conference aims to address the dire humanitarian crisis in Sudan, triggered on April 15, 2023, by clashes between the Sudanese army and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF). The ongoing violence has dismantled infrastructure, raised the specter of famine, and displaced millions both within and beyond Sudan's borders. Despite the escalating needs, international funding has fallen short. "The international response has been pitiful. We're at 5% of the needed amount," stated U.S. Special Envoy Tom Perriello, emphasizing the urgency for increased contributions. The U.S. has pledged an additional $100 million, boosting its total commitment to over $1 billion in humanitarian aid. The meeting will culminate with French President Emmanuel Macron engaging EU leaders Borrell and Lenarčič to further discuss the support measures. With thousands of civilian casualties and accusations of war crimes on both sides, the international community's consolidated efforts at the Paris conference underscore a pivotal moment in global diplomacy and humanitarian advocacy for Sudan.

- Johannesburg Flooding Traps Vehicles in Doornfontein
Johannesburg flooding trapped vehicles at Siemert Road and Currey Street in Doornfontein as JMPD diverted motorists and warned against high water. JOHANNESBURG, South Africa — 6 September 2026: Multiple vehicles became submerged and stuck in floodwater at the intersection of Siemert Road and Currey Street in Doornfontein on Sunday afternoon. Johannesburg Metropolitan Police Department officers diverted traffic and assisted stranded motorists as persistent rain turned the weekend's severe-weather warnings into a live road-safety emergency. Where is the latest Johannesburg flooding? JMPD reported severe localised flooding at Siemert Road and Currey Street in Doornfontein, where multiple vehicles became stuck in high water. Officers diverted approaching traffic and urged motorists to avoid the intersection, turn around at flooded roads and report emergencies to the city call centre. Vehicles trapped at Siemert and Currey streets eNCA reported at 4:17 PM SAST that high water had trapped multiple vehicles at the Doornfontein intersection. JMPD spokesperson Superintendent Xolani Fihla said officers were managing traffic, helping stranded road users and diverting vehicles onto alternative routes. Motorists were told to avoid the location entirely where possible. Fihla warned drivers not to enter submerged roads because stalled vehicles create additional hazards and can obstruct emergency access. He also advised people who must travel to slow down, leave more space between vehicles and keep headlights on. IOL's account carried the same operational warning and identified the City of Johannesburg emergency call centre as 011 375 5911 . Drivers should follow temporary barriers, closures and instructions from officers at the scene. A forecast threat becomes confirmed disruption The Doornfontein flooding is a material change from earlier warnings because it documents actual vehicles trapped in water, rather than only possible impacts. XTRAfrica's earlier Orange Level 5 storm warning explained the forecast risk; Sunday's incident confirms that dangerous road flooding developed inside Johannesburg. Daily Maverick reported that several Johannesburg roads flooded on Sunday and published images supplied by JMPD from the Doornfontein scene. It also documented earlier weekend impacts, including road closures, a tree that fell onto a JMPD vehicle in Witpoortjie and damage to homes and public infrastructure in North West and Northern Cape. The South African Weather Service had placed several provinces under impact-based warnings as a cut-off low drew tropical moisture across the country. A later warning package reproduced by Snow News raised the highest level to Orange Level 6 for parts of the central interior while keeping Gauteng under a lower but still serious warning.

ADVERTISEMENT Warning levels describe expected impact and likelihood across defined areas. They do not mean that every municipality will experience identical conditions. Conversely, flooding can occur outside the highest-warning zone when intense rain overwhelms local drainage or collects at low-lying intersections. What motorists should do in floodwater Drivers should turn around when a road is covered by standing or moving water. Depth is difficult to judge from inside a vehicle, and water can conceal damaged surfaces, open drains or debris. Even when another car appears to cross safely, conditions can change quickly. People already stranded should contact emergency services, keep occupants away from moving traffic and avoid leaving a stable vehicle unless water is rising or responders instruct them to move. Pedestrians should also avoid flooded underpasses and fast-flowing channels. The city emergency number reported by JMPD is 011 375 5911 . Residents should give the exact intersection, travel direction and visible hazards. Photos and videos can help establish the location, but recording should never delay a call for assistance or place the person filming in danger.

ADVERTISEMENT How this storm differs from January's flood disaster Sunday's Johannesburg incident is part of the September storm episode. It should not be confused with the five-province flood disaster declared earlier in 2026 , which followed weeks of rain and confirmed fatalities in northern South Africa. No reviewed authority had declared a new national disaster or announced deaths from the Doornfontein flooding by the latest update. The confirmed facts are narrower: vehicles were submerged, motorists were assisted and traffic was diverted. Any casualty claim, new closure list or wider emergency declaration should be checked against a current JMPD, Johannesburg Emergency Management Services, provincial disaster-management or SAWS notice. Conditions were expected to begin improving during the new week, but flooded roads can remain dangerous after rain eases. Motorists should continue checking official traffic and weather notices before travelling through low-lying parts of Johannesburg.
