A spotlight on the first-ever G20 Summit held on African soil, hosted by South Africa amid complex global tensions and rising international challenges. The summit is marked by the notable absence of key world leaders, including China’s president and US President Donald Trump, influencing discussions and the prospects of reaching a unified final declaration. The main issues on the agenda include the war in Ukraine, the escalation in Gaza, crises in Sudan and the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and the broader question of global inequality. The summit also highlights the demands of the Global South for stronger representation in shaping international decisions. An overview of the pressure South Africa faces to ensure the summit’s success, the possibility of resorting to a Chair’s Statement instead of a joint declaration, and the anticipation surrounding the United States taking over the G20 presidency next year under Trump’s unpredictable stance toward the summit’s outcomes.

These days the Israeli military has gone outside the yellow line, the area which they were meant to retreat to, and have been carrying out attacks in areas where the vast majority of displaced Palestinians have been pushed to shelter. That is about 300 metres outside the yellow line, catching people off guard because those attacks have no prior warning. This has cast fear and panic that this could be the beginning or mark the beginning of wider actions by the Israeli military.
