(Inkosi) Chief Mandla Mandela said: “We welcome the recalling of South African diplomats from apartheid Israel, but more is needed. We will keep mobilising South Africans until the apartheid Israel ambassador is expelled and all diplomatic ties with apartheid Israel are cut.”

He said the recall was long overdue and applauded the Presidency and Minister of International Relations and Co-operation (Dirco) Naledi Pandor for this decisive action.

“We appeal to them to follow this up with expelling the apartheid Israeli ambassador and cutting all diplomatic ties in light of the flagrant disregard for international law, basic humanity and regard for the value of human life as outlined in the Geneva Convention.

“We are delighted to go to the solidarity march on Saturday, November 11 in the light of this announcement. We understand that this comes in the face of immense pressure from the powers of Western imperialism, especially the USA, UK, Germany and France, but we expect our political leadership to respond to the groundswell of cries of our people to support our brothers and sisters in Palestine as they face genocide in the full glare of the world,” said Mandela.

He said he hoped this action gave encouragement to the Palestinian people’s resistance and sent a message to the international community that the country still stood by the position that “our freedom is incomplete without the freedom of the Palestinian people”.

“We call on all formations in South African society, political parties, worker formations, civic, community, youth and student formations to continue mounting pressure and protest actions until Palestine is free,” Mandela said.
