On the same note, SA deputy President Paul Mashatile will also answer oral questions later in the week in the House concerning the matter.

Meanwhile, SAFTU’s General Secretary Zwelinzima Vavi has condemned the United States for supplying arms to Israel, in the Israel-Hamas war.

Last Friday, Vavi joined Pro-Palestine supporters who are demanding a termination of relations with Israel, as well as its embassy to be cut off. The protesters say, America funds conflicts around the world such as the war in the Middle East and the Ukraine-Russia war, where thousands of civilians have been killed.

Russia invaded Ukraine in February last year.

Vavi has also raised serious concerns about the dire humanitarian situation in the Gaza strip.
