News in a minute: Trump halts foreign aid: Millions of lives at risk US President Donald Trump has signed an executive order to suspend foreign aid for 90 days. This has brought shockwaves to aid organisations worldwide as it puts millions of lives at risk, particularly in South Africa. Various vital health programmes are now frozen, leaving recipients uncertain about their access to life-saving HIV, tuberculosis, and malaria treatments.

The President’s Emergency Plan for Aids Relief is among the affected programmes. South Africa is one of the many developing countries around the world which receives aid through this programme. It is a lifeline for millions of people in South Africa. With PEPFAR now frozen, millions who depend on these life-saving medications are at risk of losing access to their treatment.

The highly anticipated Soweto derby will be Nasreddine Nabi’s and Jose Riviero’s introduction. Some big names could return.
