Border Security: A 31-year-old foreign national was arrested at the Monontsha Border Post on 10 May for carrying an unlicensed firearm and live ammunition; the case is headed for ballistic testing and a court appearance at Phuthaditjhaba Magistrate’s Court. Art & Culture: The week also spotlights William Kentridge’s “That Which I Have Drawn,” while Pope John Paul II’s fast facts keep the spotlight on global heritage. Travel & Mobility: Passport rankings keep shifting—Nigeria’s passport rose to 89th globally, but visa-free access fell to 44 destinations, a reminder that “rank” doesn’t always mean “freedom.” Tourism Momentum: Subaru is back as title sponsor of the 2026 Amohela MTB Challenge (22–24 May) in Clarens, with routes reaching up to 2,150m. Weather Watch: Disruptive rain and wintry conditions are still in the mix across South Africa and Lesotho, with ongoing advisories urging caution for travellers.
