President Cyril Ramaphosa says officials were working on an evacuation plan for South Africans who are trapped in the conflict between Israel and Palestine.

Ramaphosa, who was attending the National Executive Committee meeting of the ruling ANC party on Saturday, said they have also received calls from various countries in the Middle East to send humanitarian assistance to Gaza.

Hundreds of thousands of people in Gaza have been without water, food and electricity for almost a week since Israel started bombing Gaza. Israel also cut off the supply of fuel, water and electricity.

But Ramaphosa and the ANC NEC condemned the decision by the Israeli government to force 1.1 million people in northern Gaza to move to southern Gaza.

He said what was happening in Gaza amounted to genocide and the world must stand up for the Palestinians.


South Africa was willing to participate in any peace process to resolve the conflict between Israel and Palestine.

As you know this is an unfolding situation and it changes hour by hour. Our government agencies, our international relations department as well as our intelligence services and our defence intelligence are monitoring the situation on an ongoing basis,” said Ramaphosa.

“To this end we have called on the international community, the United Nations and all other concerned organisations that peace is restored in Palestine and that the Israeli government is directed at withdrawing this command of getting people out of northern part of Gaza because in the end it is going to amount to almost genocide as many people are going to die.

“As we speak now half-a-million people, who are Palestinians, have been displaced. They have been removed from their homes, they live in schools and other areas as well. This is the most tragic situation and almost dangerous situation that the people of Palestine have been exposed to,” said Ramaphosa.

He said humanitarian corridors must be opened to allow for the supply of food, water, fuel and other needs. Electricity must also be restored to the people of Gaza.

Ramaphosa said they were also concerned that the conflict may spill over into the Middle East and drag other countries in the region.

There were already conflicts in Africa and Ukraine, and the world cannot afford to have another conflict.
So the ANC supports the "Palestinian cause". Good to know. How come they were sabotaging Africa and cozying to Morroco on the conflict between Morocco and Western Sahara?

As it should be. The same apartheid system tha was practiced in South Africa is been replicated in Palestine. The jews are even worse savages than the whites but their day of reckoning is coming.
They will not oppress these people forever. It will change one day just like it did in SA.

A god that all his influence and power was concentrated on a land no bigger than Anambra is a joke of a deity.

Hamas went into isreal a killed children and women, kidnapped aged and children without any provocation and this animal said he stands with the terrorists.
Why not send his south African soldiers to Gaza so that we can see how many will come back.

Nice one SouthAfrica.

Like Nelson Mandela said, the West enemy shouldn’t be SA enemy.

Palestine stood with South Africa during the apartheid so it’s humane for SA to stand by them in this trying period too.



Exactly my point, we as Africans should try and read and understand the history of conflicts around the world before we take sides if not we will just support or hate blindly.

SA is the "S" in BRICS.
BRICS is:

Brazil
RUSSIA
INDIA
CHINA

South Africa.

Take note of the countries in caps and bolded.

Pres. Ramaphosa is saying their mind.

you are the foolish guy, your forefathers would be ashamed of you. Mandela outrightly condemned Israel for being an Apartheid state and openly supported the Palestinian Liberation organisation "PLO".

Israel's father's Land is in Ur of Chaldeans (Presently located in Iraq/Iran Border).

Abraham was Born in Ur of Chaldean.

Any of Abraham's children is entitled to land in Ur of Chaldeans (Father's land).

The land they went to temporarily occupied in Haran (Modern day Turkey/Syria border) and permanently occupied in Canaan (Modern day West Bank, Gaza & Israel) were not originally their father's land.

They only migrated to possess what actually belonged to someone else. Bible did not argue this.

Just that they felt entitled that someone they believed told their father (Abraham) that he would give them another man's land.

In Genesis to Deuteronomy, bible did not tell us that those lands belonged to nobody. It told us that the occupiers (Israel) should go and contend with the indigenous people.

Imagine someone come to your hometown now, and say that one god of his fathers says he has given them your town for a possession, how will you respond?

Many who kept on cheering Israel don't read Bible. Many who read it are living in hypocrisy as if God did not create all humans.

My Brother, we might have disagreed on many other issues, but on Israel's occupation of Gaza and West Bank, I agree with you 100%.

Lemme say this. Many of us who claimed Christianity do not understand the bible.

Christians are Christ-like people. Are the Jews perpetrating apartheid against the Palestinians Christian? NO.
This same annihilation was what they did to JESUS CHRIST.

I am for Christ who preached LOVE.
I am not for TORAH that preached an eye for an eye.
The problem is, the present day Palestinians were not the philistines that were the original indigenous people. The land has belonged to different people over the years depending on where you start your history. The present day Palestinians were by no means the original owner so your logic is flawed

You are ignorant!
The situations in Israel and South Africa are not identical. Israel is a complex and diverse society, with multiple ethnic and religious groups living together. South Africa, under apartheid, was a very different society, with a strict system of racial segregation in place.

One key difference between Israel and South Africa is the concept of citizenship. All citizens of Israel, regardless of race or religion, have equal rights under the law. In South Africa, non-white citizens were not considered equal, and were denied basic rights and freedoms. Right or wrong?
Israel has an elected government, while South Africa was ruled by a white minority that denied the majority of its citizens the right to vote. These are just a few of the differences between the two societies, which make the comparison of apartheid and Israel inaccurate. Again, do you understand what apartheid mean!

South Africa has the best foreign policy in Africa.

That's one thing I envy about them.

If you check how the handle the issue with Putin and BRICS summit in South Africa and other of their foreign policies stand, you will know that they are far way from imperialism unlike other Western caged African countries.
