South Africa to Revoke ID Documents of Ex-Miss SA Finalist and Mother in Fraud CaseFebruary 12, 2026 4:18 PM Full SummaryChidimma Adetshina withdrew from the Miss South Africa pageant in August 2024 after questions arose about her citizenship. Investigations revealed her mother, Anabela Rungo from Mozambique, likely stole a South African woman's identity in 2001 to obtain documents, preventing the real holder from accessing basic services. Home Affairs announced plans in October 2024 to revoke their IDs and travel rights after they missed a deadline to respond; the case went to the Hawks for fraud probe, with Rungo briefly detained in 2025. The ongoing saga highlights immigration frustrations and the lasting harm of identity theft. Key TakeawayA young woman's stolen identity left her life on hold, while her alleged fraudster lived it—now South Africa's government is moving to cancel those documents. Context & EntitiesTopics

Nottingham Forest Name Vítor Pereira Fourth Coach This SeasonFebruary 17, 2026 9:52 PM Full SummaryThe club appointed 57-year-old Portuguese tactician Vítor Pereira on an 18-month deal after sacking Sean Dyche following a poor 114-day spell.

Key TakeawayNottingham Forest's City Ground has become a revolving door for managers this season, but Vítor Pereira steps in with a proven rescue record and a warm reunion with the owner.

Yamal's Penalty Miss Sparks Palmer Debate After Barca LossFebruary 17, 2026 10:27 PM Full SummaryThe 18-year-old Barca star, who placed second in last year's Ballon d'Or, missed the first-half kick after Dani Olmo's opener, paving the way for Girona's Fran Beltran equalizer and Thomas Lemar's late winner. Despite completing the most dribbles and earning a 7.9 rating while battling illness, Yamal's slip handed Real Madrid the La Liga lead with Barca now two points back at 58 from 24 games. Fans clashed online over whether he's truly better than Chelsea's Cole Palmer, who has eight Premier League goals this season including a hat-trick, citing career stats, positions, and Yamal's Euro 2024 heroics at a young age.
