AGP Executive Report

Last update: an hour ago

Mass shootings: South Africa is reeling after two back-to-back attacks left at least 27 dead and 26 injured near Johannesburg and Cape Town, with police hunting gunmen and investigating possible links to criminal turf wars and business rivalries. Western Cape violence: In Lwandle, Cape Town, gunmen stormed a shisanyama in the early hours, killing 10 and injuring 11; authorities opened murder and attempted-murder cases and set up a multi-disciplinary probe. Crime hotspots: New figures put Mfuleni in the spotlight, recording 73 murders in 91 days, underscoring how violence remains concentrated in specific communities. Weather watch: SAWS warned of severe thunderstorms, heavy downpours, hail and lightning in parts of Gauteng, Mpumalanga and Limpopo, while the Western Cape faces calmer conditions. Tourism boost for the province: The Western Cape welcomed 1.5 million international visitors in 2025, bringing nearly R25.9bn in spend, as World Tourism Day is marked. Local governance pressure: In Nelson Mandela Bay, the EFF and DA trade barbs over municipal failures, irregular spending and service delivery collapse.
