Iran's state TV labeled the women's national team 'wartime traitors' after they refused to sing the anthem in their 3-0 loss to South Korea on March 3 at the AFC Women's Asian Cup, days after U.S. and Israeli strikes on Iran including the assassination of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. Security presenter Mohammad Reza Shahbazi warned of severe punishment, as the mostly 21-23-year-old players now face tight surveillance by Revolutionary Guard-linked forces at their Gold Coast hotel. In their next game, they sang and saluted, which state media praised but exiles called coerced; global voices urge Australia to consider asylum amid fears of execution or detention.

In a Church Times interview following his recent West Bank visit, Archbishop of York Stephen Cottrell described Israeli military actions in Gaza as deliberately indiscriminate and genocidal acts, while labeling the West Bank a regime of apartheid and ethnic cleansing through settler expansion.

Anelle de Bruin, 46, faces conspiracy to commit murder charges after prosecutors say she hired hitmen via a middleman to kill her 56-year-old husband Johan on their Eastern Cape farm, aiming for over R50 million in insurance.

Her Wednesday court appearance in Maletswai postponed the case to April 23; online, the story split sharply, with some calling it proof of internal greed over racial farm violence claims.

Key Takeaway

The manipulated video, spread across India and Pakistan, depicted Aleema Khan labeling Army Chief Asim Munir a radicalised Islamist behind the May 2025 Kashmir clash, while praising her brother Imran Khan as a liberal seeking ties with India. In reality, Hakim's December 2 interview focused only on Imran Khan's prison conditions in Adiala Jail, including solitary confinement and restricted family visits reported by sister Dr. Uzma Khan. Geo Fact Check confirmed the audio's low authenticity score, and Indian outlets issued corrections after amplifying it initially. Experts warn such deepfakes, blending real Sky News footage, heighten risks between nuclear-armed neighbors.

Key Takeaway

A fabricated clip twisted Aleema Khan's words to accuse Pakistan's army chief of starting a war with India. Sky News journalist Yalda Hakim called it terrifying and completely fake.
