An opposition party organiser was killed ahead of South Africa's local elections, per Al Jazeera. The assassination underscores deepening political tensions as the country prepares for voting.
The killing follows a wave of violence targeting political figures, raising concerns about electoral safety. Local officials have condemned the attack and pledged to investigate.
