Muhsin Hendricks, considered the world’s first openly gay imam, has been shot dead near the southern city of Gqeberha in what appears to be a targeted attack.
He ran the Al-Ghurbaah mosque at Wynberg near his birthplace, Cape Town. The mosque provides “a safe space in which queer Muslims and marginalised women can practise Islam”

“The US won’t stand for it, we will act,” Trump said in a Sunday evening post on Truth Social. “Also, I will be cutting off all future funding to South Africa until a full investigation of this situation has been completed!”

Interrupted #HIV treatment may also lead to the emergence of resistant strains that can spread across the world.

One study estimated that if #PEPFAR were to end, as many as 600,000 lives would be lost over the next decade in #SouthAfrica alone. And that nation relies on PEPFAR for only 20% of its HIV budget. Some poorer countries are almost entirely dependent on the program.
