Life in Cape Town’s notorious gang area
The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.
The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.
“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.
In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.
He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.
Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.
Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.
The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.

It comes after another night of strikes between the US and Iran, with Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps saying it hit two UAE tankers in the Strait of Hormuz and targeted US facilities in Jordan and Bahrain.
The UAE called the attack “brazen”, adding that an Indian crew member was killed and eight others were injured.
Meanwhile, the US military says it completed strikes on targets aimed at degrading “Iran’s ability to attack commercial shipping” – Iranian state media reports three people were killed.

The US military said it was carrying out a new wave of strikes on targets in Iran. It said the aim of the attacks was to degrade Iran’s ability to attack shipping in the strait of Hormuz. It came ass the US Navy resumed its blockade of Iran’s ports.
Iran said that control of the strait of Hormuz was required for its national security and it will exercise sovereignty over the key shipping lane, whatever the cost.
President Trump announced that he was scrapping a plan he had announced a day earlier, for placing a 20% toll or tariff on all cargos passing through the strait of Hormuz.

There are hotspots where shooting Often happens. If the police just patrol the those areas and lock up the people who sell the drugs then it's a start instead of shot spotter costing millions to tell you where they just shot a few rounds. Also areas like Hanover Park with so much gang violence don't have a police station instead they need to call to Phillippi where people don't understand the ones calling in due to not really being from Cape town and only understand Xhosa and slight English. Stop being scared of these drug lords running the gangs, do what pagad did and defend yourself if necessary.

Wow poor boy is paralyzed and the ex gang member is paralyzed from the waist down . That’s terrible. If your going to be a gang member/drug dealer at least try to make your life better and don’t go around killing innocent people. This is heartbreaking. How are they getting guns ?I hear Africa is struggling to even get food so how on earth do these guys purchase a gun

This what invading and colonization does to all who have been colonized by Europeans. We are out of who we really are living in a greedy controlling system that been put in place. The money system the guns none of that was around and people lived more peaceful. I'm not saying things were good all the time but every place that has been colonized by Europeans has been a tragedy for people of color. Give them back everything including jesus because under him we can't think or even fight back. Go back to the true God before jesus

If u gona be a gangster at least be rich or have enough cash to live the lifestyle u always wished for and put more than enough food in the table for your own. There’s nothing shaming like a poor gangster, I mean if u gona be wrapping your neighborhood (standing from comer to corner selling drugs) atleast make that cheese or else go back to basics and start using your mind to make a change. That ratchet (gun) won’t get u out of the hood or buy u a car of your dreams
