#SecurityCordonsOffAfricaUnitySquare Zimbabwean security forces have cordoned off the historic Africa Unity Square in central Harare to prevent would-be street protesters, fearing the threatened one million man march - an anti-government protest - against President Emmerson Mnangagwa's bid to extend his controversial rule that constitutionally ends in 2028 to 2030...

This is how bad and pathetic the water situation in Zimbabwe’s capital city, Harare, has become. A borehole is being drilled on Kaguvi Street, outside HT Tyres. This is what corruption does to a country, central government controls everything in councils, resulting in this collapse. In cities like Harare, the need for boreholes reflects how corruption and central government interference have crippled local authorities, stripping them of the capacity to provide basic services. Boreholes in central business districts indicate that the municipal water supply system has failed. In a functioning city, clean and reliable piped water should be standard, particularly in central areas. Most of Harare, including the most affluent areas, does not receive piped water at all. The Water Act clearly states that Central Government (ZANUPF Government) should build dams! This has not been done due to rampant historic corruption. Harare and its dormitory towns rely on Lake Chivero, which was constructed by the colonial government in 1952 to provide clean drinking water for Harare and its surrounding areas, with a total population of 300,000 people. Today, it serves the Harare metropolitan area and satellite towns such as Chitungwiza, Epworth, Norton, and Ruwa with a total population of around 4.5 million people. The same lake that provides drinking water also receives untreated sewage. Residents have resorted to boreholes, sadly, something the last colonial ruler Ian Smith predicted would happen. How tragic that predictions once dismissed as racist have now come to pass.

This video shows the home of Gilbert Bgwende, a member of the Constitutional Defence Forum, engulfed in flames in the early hours of yesterday in Highfield in Harare. Bgwende is one of the members of the Constitutional Defence Forum who have been vocal in opposing President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s bid to extend his rule to 2030. According to witnesses, the arsonists arrived in three black cars, ordered the occupants to vacate the house, poured a flammable substance, and set it ablaze. Two police officers are currently on the scene, but the house has been completely destroyed and is now uninhabitable. The seminar room at SAPES, which was meant to be used by a group of civil society and political leaders to launch their resistance against President Mnangagwa’s 2030 term extension, was also torched in the early hours of yesterday and completely gutted to the ground. The attack, coming just hours before the planned press conference, underscores the regime’s growing desperation to silence dissenting voices and suppress any organised opposition to the 2030 agenda. Interestingly, the 2030 Agenda has inadvertently breathed new life into opposition politics in Zimbabwe. Where there was once apathy and fragmentation in response to the country’s political decay, the push for a term extension has now united groups and individuals who were previously divided, bringing together former rivals under a common cause to resist it. In attempting to consolidate power, the regime has instead rekindled political consciousness and solidarity among those determined to defend Zimbabwe’s constitutional order.

Pakistan's oppression of occupied #Kashmir is worsening. As the world's attention is largely fixated on the war between Israel and Hamas in the Middle East, unrest has erupted in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir in South Asia. Tensions are rising in Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir (PoJK) as the Pakistani government has been deploying troops from Punjab Province to suppress the imminent protests in the region due May 11. The protests aim to address the Kashmiri people's economic, social and political problems that Pakistan's government has failed to solve. The United Kashmir People's National Party (UKPNP) and the Joint Awami Action Committee (JAAC) have issued warnings to the government of Pakistan against the use of any force against protestors. The warnings have apparently been ignored as Pakistan mobilized its troops to the area, leading to more protests. Historical background info: "In 1947, the Princely State of Jammu and Kashmir became part of the Republic of #India. Shortly thereafter, Pakistani armed forces and Pashtun tribesmen invaded the area, forcing the largest Kashmiri political party to approve the accession. Indian forces were deployed to counter the attacks by Pakistan. In 1948, the UN Security Council passed Resolution 47 requiring all Pakistani military personnel to withdraw from the region before a plebiscite—which would have confirmed the people’s wishes to join India—could be called. Instead of this Pakistan increased its military presence, and no plebiscite was held. In the areas of Kashmir which remained outside of India, Pakistan Occupied Kashmir, 41,000 Hindu families were forced to flee from Pashtun tribesmen. "The historic region of Kashmir has a total area of 85,807 sq. miles and is now divided between three countries. Pakistan occupies approximately 30,160 sq. miles, known as (PoK) and the Northern Areas." Clashes between Pakistani troops and Kashmiri locals are expected to further escalate.

The ayatollah gave a direct order to kill protesters. The death toll has crossed one thousand Protesters in Iran report that security forces opened fire on crowds without warnings or attempts to disperse them. “They were simply killing people, over and over again,” a Tehran resident told the BBC. After Ali Khamenei declared that the regime would “not retreat”, the violence escalated sharply. The IRGC and the Basij militia were deployed to the streets — ideologically indoctrinated fanatics loyal to the ayatollah. Witnesses from Tehran, Ferdows, Karaj, and Mashhad describe the same scenes: ambushes in side streets, shootings from unmarked vehicles, and large numbers of bodies lying in the streets. The internet has been almost completely shut down for several days, making it impossible to verify the full scale of the killings. The regime cut connectivity not only to prevent protesters from coordinating, but also to ensure that the security forces’ atrocities are not seen by the world. Death toll estimates vary. Reuters reports around 2,000 killed, while opposition media cite significantly higher numbers. The regime labels the protests “terrorism” and blames the United States and Israel. The order to shoot protesters was personally given by Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and approved by Iran’s entire leadership. Despite the unprecedented scale of repression, the protests continue and threaten to bring down the regime. It looks like Trump may need to intervene — now.
