However, the group of South Africans who were deported did not follow the traditional legal route and were not in the country legally.After reading this I shook my head in wonderment, the same South Africans that Zandile Dabula exonerates from crime but attack fellow Africans. Look at what South Africans are doing in another man's country drugs and prostitution. I wish the Irish had given them the operation Dudula treatment. 2 Likes |
| Foreign Affairs › Group Of South Africans Deported From Ireland. by Ironfaceman(op): 12:38am On Mar 05 |
Group of South Africans removed from Ireland 63 South Africans, consisting of 54 adults and 9 children, have been removed from Ireland by charter flight. Ireland’s Justice, Home Affairs, and Migration Minister, Jim O’Callaghan, confirmed completion of a charter operation to South Africa to effect deportation orders. The flight departed Dublin Airport at 17h05 on Saturday, 28 February 2026, and landed in Johannesburg shortly after 4h00 on Sunday, 1 March 2026. The returnees were accompanied on the flight by members of An Garda Síochána, medical staff, an interpreter, and a human rights observer. This is the second charter operation this year, and the eighth since the recommencement of charter flights to effect removals and deportation orders in 2025. “I would like to acknowledge that the majority of South African nationals resident in Ireland are doing so legally,” said Minister of State Colm Brophy. He explained that these South Africans entered Ireland through the various legal pathways available. “They are welcome and contribute immensely to our economy and society,” Brophy said in a statement. However, the group of South Africans who were deported did not follow the traditional legal route and were not in the country legally. Ten of the adults had criminal convictions in Ireland, ranging from domestic violence to drug trafficking. Their removal dovetails with parallel policing operations such as Operation Tara, related to drug networks, and Operation Moonridge, linked to sex-offender management. Commenting on the charter flight, Minister O’Callaghan said they would increase the options available to An Garda Síochána to effect orders. Charter flights are now a routine and essential part of immigration enforcement for the state,” he said. “Without effective enforcement measures, our immigration laws would be undermined. I want to ensure that there is public confidence in the application of our laws.” “If a person does not have a legal permission to be in the State, or has been involved in criminality, they will be removed.” Voluntary return is an option open to people who have no legal status in Ireland, including those who are refused International Protection. Where this option is taken up, a deportation order is not issued in respect of that person https://businesstech.co.za/news/government/852728/group-of-south-africans-removed-from-ireland/

hope the United States will not run away like they did in Afghanistan. After spending 21 years bombing taliban. Paid trillions of dollars in bereavements to families of the fallen and abandoned weapon cache for the taliban. One would wonder why trump spent months planing how to bomb Iran , instead of sending his navy seal to kidnap Ayatollah. This has proved the rumors that Trump spent billions of dollars bribing Venezuelan Army to give up maduro. With Al the noise trump has been making to topple bad government.

| Foreign Affairs › The Iran War’s Troubling Missile Math by Ironfaceman(op): 10:33pm On Mar 04 |
Four days into war with Iran, at least one of the United States’ Gulf allies is already running low on crucial interceptor munitions used to defend against Iranian missile and drone attacks, two sources told CNN. “It’s not panic yet, but the sooner they get here the better,” one regional source told CNN, referring to a request their government made to the US for more interceptors. That mirrors concern across the region, including in Israel, about the stockpile of weapons needed to defend against Iranian attacks, especially as President Donald Trump has floated an extended timeline for the campaign. Speaking at the White House on Monday, Trump said the war was initially “projected” to last “four to five weeks” but added the US military has the “capability to go far longer than that.” Qatar has enough interceptors for a long period of time but is still in touch with the US military’s Central Command in case the Qataris need to ask for more interceptors, a Qatari source told CNN, declining to specify what that time period was. Before the war began, Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Gen. Dan Caine and other military leaders warned Trump that a protracted military campaign could impact US weapons stockpiles – particularly those that support Israel and Ukraine, according to multiple sources familiar with the matter The US has been “burning” through long-range precision-guided missiles over the last several days, according to a person familiar with the matter. Now that the war is expanding, it’s a numbers game: How many interceptors will the US and its regional allies need to continuously shoot down Iranian missiles and how many, if any, of those weapons will need to be redirected from other stockpiles earmarked for US forces in the Pacific? US rivals like China will be watching closely. “Each intercept represents hundreds of hours of training, readiness, and technology all coming together to work as designed,” Caine said at a press briefing on Monday on the US-Israel military operation against Iran. Later that day, Secretary of State Marco Rubio said that Iran is “producing, by some estimates, over 100 of these missiles a month. Compare that to the six or seven interceptors that can be built a month.” He added that destroying Iran’s missile capacity is the goal of the US campaign. In a post on Truth Social Monday night, Trump appeared to respond to concerns over dwindling stockpiles. He wrote that US munitions stockpiles “at the medium and upper medium grade” have “never been higher or better,” adding that the US has a “virtually unlimited supply of these weapons.” https://edition.cnn.com/2026/03/04/politics/missiles-weapons-stockpile-iran-us-war?iid=cnn_buildContentRecirc_end_recirc&recs_exp=most-popular-article-end&tenant_id=popular.en

| Foreign Affairs › President Of Botswana Appoints Akinwole II Omoboriowo by Ironfaceman(op): 8:23am On Mar 03 |
President Of Botswana Appoints Akinwole II Omoboriowo As Vice Chairman Of Botswana Power Corporation’s Board Of Directors.Botswana’s energy sector is set to gain a new strong voice with clear vision at its highest levels following the appointment of Nigerian energy leader Akinwole II Omoboriowo as Board Member and Vice Chairman of the Botswana Power Corporation’s (BPC) Board of Directors. The move, confirmed on BPC’s official website, comes as the nation seeks to address persistent electricity supply challenges, expanding its renewable energy footprint and become net exporter of clean energy within a short period of time. Omoboriowo, a leader in African power infrastructure and energy finance, brings over two decades of experience in utility-scale generation, project structuring, and cross-border energy development. He currently serves as Chairman and CEO of GENESIS Energy Group, where he has led utility-scale generation projects of more than 780MW in operations, ongoing construction, and advanced development in Nigeria, South Africa, Benin Republic, Zambia, Rwanda, Zimbabwe, Mali and United Kingdom with a project development pipeline north of 4.5GW. His expertise spans conventional power infrastructure development, distributed energy deployments (both renewable and gas), natural gas commercialisation, energy markets reforms and specialised energy investment financing- capabilities that align with Botswana’s current reform priorities. Steering Botswana’s Energy Transition A recent World Bank‑sourced energy generation monitoring indicates that Botswana’s electricity generation at key coal plants has fluctuated significantly, with Morupule B’s production declining from 3,328 GWh in 2022–23 to 2,674 GWh in 2024–25 — reflecting instability in domestic supply capacity. Omoboriowo joins BPC at a pivotal moment as the corporation continues to implement its Maduo 26 strategy, a five year transformation agenda launched in 2022 to improve operational efficiency and financial performance and make the utility a regional benchmark in energy supply. Experts say this strategy complements national priorities to diversify Botswana’s energy mix, increase renewable generation, and strengthen grid resilience — all part of wider reforms under the country’s Integrated Resource Plan. His appointment reinforces BPC’s commitment to: Expanding renewable energy capacity Strengthening regional power trade within the Southern African Power Pool (SAPP) Enhancing grid resilience and operational performance Mobilising investment into sustainable energy infrastructure Under this framework, BPC seeks not only to stabilize Botswana’s electricity supply but also to position the country as a net exporter of electricity within the Southern African Power Pool (SAPP). Omoboriowo’s leadership is expected to focus on corporate structural re-alignment, capital efficiency, governance and ensuring that infrastructure development translates into measurable operational and commercial outcomes. A Continental Perspective Omoboriowo’s career highlights a trend of intra-African professional mobility, where expertise developed in other market is leveraged to solve complex challenges elsewhere. His experiences spans structuring and investing in multiple countries including the United Kingdom across both conventional and renewable energy projects, emphasizing capital efficiency, financial engineering governance, and execution rigour. In a public LinkedIn post, Omoboriowo acknowledged the confidence placed in him by President Advocate Duma Boko of Botswana, as well as that of Minister of Minerals and Energy, Her Excellency Bogolo Joy Kenewendo, describing the role as an opportunity to contribute to a national institution at a critical stage of its development. “I assume this responsibility with humility — but with buoyancy, high commitment to duty, and unwavering dedication to delivery. The work ahead is substantial, but so too is the opportunity to contribute meaningfully to a critical national institution at an important moment in its evolution,” Omoboriowo wrote Implications for Regional Energy Integration As Botswana seeks to diversify its energy sources, improve system resilience and secure its energy security, the performance of BPC remains central to the country’s industrial ambitions and regional competitiveness. Enhanced governance and strategic oversight could influence not only domestic reliability but also Botswana’s role within the Southern African electricity market. With Maduo 26 approaching its 2026 target horizon, Omoboriowo’s role as Vice Chairman places him at the heart of one of the most consequential transformation efforts in Botswana’s energy sector in recent years — a development that policymakers and regional energy stakeholders will be watching closely. https://leadership.ng/president-of-botswana-appoints-akinwole-ii-omoboriowo-as-vice-chairman-of-botswana-power-corporations-board-of-directors/

| Foreign Affairs › Russian Soldiers Tell BBC They Saw Fellow Troops Executed On Commanders' Orders by Ironfaceman(op): 6:28am On Feb 26 |
Warning: This story contains details of extreme violence and reference to suicide. Four Russian soldiers have exposed the horror and brutality of conditions on their side of the front lines in Ukraine, with two men telling the BBC they saw soldiers being executed on the spot for refusing orders. One man told a documentary team he saw a soldier executed on the order of his commander, who was made a "Hero of Russia" in 2024. "I see it - just two metres, three metres... click, clack, bang," he said. Another soldier, from a different unit, says he saw his commander shoot four men himself. "I knew them," he says of the soldiers executed. "I remember one of them screaming 'Don't shoot, I'll do anything!'" One of them also says he saw 20 bodies of fellow soldiers lying in a pit after being "zeroed" by comrades. The term "zero" is Russian military slang for executing your own. In the documentary, The Zero Line: Inside Russia's War, men give detailed accounts about how they were tortured for refusing to take part in assaults they describe as verging on suicide missions. Russian troops call these attacks "meat storms" as waves of men are sent across the front line relentlessly to try and wear down Ukrainian forces. For the first time, the BBC believes, Russian soldiers from the front line say on the record how they witnessed commanders ordering executions of their own men. One of the men, whose job was to identify and count dead soldiers, provided detailed lists showing that he is the sole survivor from a group of 79 men he was mobilised with. Because he refused to go to the front line, he says he was tortured and urinated on. Others in his unit who refused would be electrocuted, starved and then forced into meat storms unarmed, he says. The four men, who are on the run, told of the horrors they witnessed at an undisclosed location outside Russia Almost all public opposition to President Vladimir Putin's invasion of Ukraine has been stamped out in Russia. Official casualty numbers are not released by Moscow, but the UK's Ministry of Defence says more than 1.2 million Russian troops have been killed or injured since the full-scale invasion on 24 February 2022. The Russian government says its armed forces "operate with utmost restraint, as far as possible under the conditions of a high-intensity conflict, treating their personnel with maximum care". "Information regarding alleged violations and crimes is duly investigated," it added. "We are unable to independently verify the accuracy or authenticity of the information you have provided," it said. The detailed first-hand testimony from all four men also verifies reports of a breakdown of law and order on the Russian front line. Ilya, the soldier who identified and counted the dead, is one of the men who says he saw comrades being killed by commanders. Before the war, the 35-year-old taught children with special needs and autism in Kungur, in the Ural Mountains. Then in May 2024, police turned up at his parents' house and told him he was being called up. He was mobilised alongside 78 other men, he says, at a recruitment centre in the city of Perm. "Nearly everyone was drunk," he says. "Forwards into battle! We'll get Zelensky and raise our flag!" he recalls them shouting. "I was watching them and thinking 'How did I end up here?' I was so scared." Upon arriving in Ukraine, Ilya says most of the men were sent straight to the front line. He says he did not want to shoot or kill anyone, and ended up at a command post. Conditions were brutal, and he says he witnessed four people being shot at point-blank range by a commander - one in Panteleimonivka, and three in Novoazovsk, both in Russian-occupied Donetsk in eastern Ukraine - because they had fled the front line and refused to return. The saddest thing is that I knew them. I remember one of them screaming 'Don't shoot, I'll do anything!' but he [the commander] zeroed them anyway," Ilya says. Zeroing is usually carried out as punishment for refusing orders, and acts as a means of intimidation for others who may be thinking of doing the same, the men told us. "Your fate depended on your commander. The commander is on the radio: 'Zero this one, zero that one,'" Ilya says. Executions of soldiers who refused orders were not confined to Ilya's unit. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cz7gw3l395ro
