Africa Daily Report — 1 October 2026 Major developments reported during the previous 24 hours 1. Kenya / East Africa — $16 billion Dangote refinery breaks ground in Lamu. Five African heads of state joined the groundbreaking of Dangote Group's planned $16 billion refinery in Lamu. The plant is designed to process 700,000 barrels per day and is expected to take about 40 months to complete. It is intended to reduce East Africa's dependence on imported refined petroleum, but the project still faces land-rights litigation and environmental concerns. Importance: VERY HIGH — the project could materially reshape East African fuel supply, trade flows, infrastructure investment and regional industrialisation.

President Cyril Ramaphosa announced additional measures after the discovery of multiple murdered women in Ekurhuleni. Measures include a 60-day local-government safety audit and reviews of unresolved murder, rape and other gender-based-violence cases. Police have not established that the recent killings were committed by a single perpetrator. Importance: VERY HIGH — gender-based violence remains a major public-safety and criminal-justice challenge in South Africa. Direct source: https://www.reuters.com/world/africa/violence-against-women-south-africa-is-national-shame-president-says-2026-09-30/ 3. DR Congo — Mistrust complicates Ebola response after politician killed. Congolese politician Marie-Célestin Karondwa was killed after publicly supporting the government's Ebola response, according to AP. The killing illustrates the severe community mistrust confronting health authorities as the Bundibugyo-virus outbreak continues. Congo has recorded more than 8,000 confirmed infections and nearly 4,000 deaths in the current outbreak. Importance: CRITICAL — the combination of rapid transmission, very high mortality, insecurity and resistance to health measures poses a major regional public-health risk. Direct source: https://apnews.com/article/1ff629474298a62db44438c6eb178270 4. Zambia — Government opens talks with IMF on a new programme. Zambia began discussions with a visiting IMF mission on a successor lending programme. The country's previous $1.7 billion IMF arrangement expired in January, and Lusaka wants a new agreement before year-end. The IMF mission is scheduled to remain through October 10. Importance: HIGH — a new IMF programme could affect Zambia's fiscal policy, investment environment and economic strategy after its sovereign-debt restructuring. Direct source: https://www.reuters.com/world/africa/zambia-starts-talks-with-visiting-imf-mission-new-loan-programme-2026-09-30/ 5. South Africa / United States — Pretoria summons US ambassador. South Africa's foreign ministry summoned US Ambassador Leo Brent Bozell III over what it described as “undiplomatic conduct.” It was the third such summons in nine months, reflecting continuing strain in bilateral relations. Both governments have nevertheless indicated that dialogue is continuing. Direct source: https://www.reuters.com/world/africa/south-africa-summons-us-ambassador-again-over-undiplomatic-conduct-official-says-2026-09-30/ 6. South Africa — Anti-immigration protests held in Durban. Hundreds of demonstrators marched in Durban calling for more deportations of undocumented migrants and tighter border controls. The demonstration comes amid heightened tensions over migration and previous violence against foreign nationals. Authorities did not recognise an ultimatum previously issued by organisers demanding that undocumented migrants leave the country. Direct source: https://apnews.com/article/c086e617b555643510541f9c9906ca4b 7. Africa — WHO data show sharp increase in cholera deaths. New WHO surveillance data show that reported cholera deaths globally rose by about 30% in 2025 despite fewer reported cases. The African Region experienced a particularly sharp deterioration: reported cases increased by 34% and deaths by 58%. Angola, DR Congo, Nigeria, South Sudan and Sudan were among seven countries accounting for roughly 90% of reported global cases and deaths. Importance: VERY HIGH — the figures highlight persistent weaknesses in water, sanitation, surveillance and access to timely treatment across several African states. Direct source: https://allafrica.com/stories/202609300113.html 8. Zambia — New cholera outbreak reaches 304 cases and 11 deaths. Zambian health authorities reported 304 cholera cases across seven districts in five provinces as of September 29, with 11 deaths. Lusaka was among the affected areas. The government said eight deaths occurred in communities, pointing to delays in patients reaching treatment. Importance: HIGH — Zambia only recently ended its previous outbreak, making renewed transmission a significant public-health concern. Direct source: https://www.mwebantu.com/11-die-as-cholera-hits-seven-districts-in-five-provinces-says-ministry-of-health/ 9. Burkina Faso — Country opens its first gold refinery. Burkina Faso inaugurated its first domestic gold refinery, RAFFINOR-BF, in Ouagadougou. The facility cost more than 11 billion CFA francs and has an initial annual refining capacity of about 164 tonnes, with plans for substantial expansion. The project is intended to retain more value from the country's gold production through domestic refining, certification and processing. Importance: HIGH — the refinery is part of a wider African trend toward local mineral beneficiation and greater domestic control of commodity value chains. Direct source: https://apnews.com/article/f39f714232e1784bb5051cdf44f0b992 10. Zimbabwe — Helicopter crash reported with six people aboard. A helicopter carrying four passengers and two crew members crashed in Zimbabwe's Marondera district southeast of Harare. Government and police officials said initial information indicated there were no survivors. Authorities had not immediately released all identities or a cause for the crash. Importance: MODERATE — a significant domestic aviation accident, with investigation and identification of those aboard still pending.

Just read at @CDU: "This week in the cabinet decided: Harsher penalties for attacks on doctors and paramedics!" Wow. Great. Who do we thank for this madness again? And what is this supposed to achieve with our justice system? Everything is just ridiculous now. #Politik #Gesundheit #Justiz (translated)

Bevor jetzt noch dutzende Leute ankommen: Ja, Habeck hat gestern bei Miosga gesagt, dass Israel Kriegsverbrechen begangen hat. „Ich denke, es gibt viele Belege, dass in Gaza Kriegsverbrechen begangen wurden.“ Es ist aber Blödsinn, mir das jetzt aufs Brot schmieren zu wollen. Denn das habe ich nie, wirklich zu keinem Zeitpunkt, bestritten. Aus dem einfachen Grund, weil in JEDEM Krieg Kriegsverbrechen begangen werden. Auch Soldaten der Bundeswehr werden vereinzelt schon welche begangen haben. Und was die Palästinenser tun, ist im Grunde eine Aneinanderreihung von fortlaufenden Kriegsverbrechen. Nur dass sich dafür kein internationales Gericht zuständig sieht. Ich habe beispielsweise sehr sachlich über das so genannte „Sanitäter-Massaker“ berichtet. Und – wenig beachtet – darüber, was später herausgekommen ist. Ich habe dennoch ein kleines Problem mit der Aussage Habecks. Ein kleines. Worüber ich mich aber keine Sekunde aufrege. Kriegsverbrechen werden üblicherweise von Personen begangen. In seltenen Fällen können Staaten wegen Handlungen beschuldigt werden. Dann muss man aber nachweisen, dass es systematisch geschah. Zu sagen, „Israel“ habe Kriegsverbrechen begangen, vereinfacht das also. Und spielt somit der Propaganda in die Hände. Da es unterstellt, dies sei systematisch geschehen. Habecks Auftritt war insgesamt eh nicht stark. Da er einerseits als ehemaliger Politiker nun frei Schnautze reden kann, andererseits aber nicht anderen auf die Füße treten wollte. Was man an seiner ständigen Suche nach Formulierungen gemerkt hat. Als Politiker hat man die Floskeln und Wordings parat. Warum machen die Medien nun eine Schlagzeile daraus? Na weil sie genau wissen, dass das ein Aufreger ist. Das bringt Klicks und das bringt Umsatz. Weil die einen sofort rufen, dass er die Gräueltaten der Palästinenser nicht genannt hat. Was in dem Kontext völlig deplatziert gewesen wäre, aber geschenkt. Und weil die anderen nun schreien „Hah, wir haben es die ganze Zeit gesagt! Er hat es zugegeben!“ Mögliche Kriegsverbrechen werden auch in Israel breit diskutiert. Nicht nur durch irgendwelche NGOs. Die Medien, nicht nur die Haaretz, sind ständig voll. Wann immer mir jemand etwas von Kriegsverbrechen erzählt, frage ich gerne danach, ob er oder sie mir drei nennen kann. Nur drei konkrete, mutmaßliche. Danach kommt üblicherweise nur heiße Luft, oder irgendwelche pauschalen Aussagen, die man irgendwo aufgeschnappt hat. Weil die meisten nicht wissen, was tatsächlich Kriegsverbrechen sind. Kriegsverbrechen müssen nämlich absichtlich begangen werden. Service Hinweis. #Kriegsverbrechen #Gaza #Israel

Die zwei Gesichter des Gottfried Ornetsmüller. Im Sommer 1939, wenige Monate vor Kriegsbeginn, wurde er in Linz zum Priester geweiht; im April 1940 wurde er zum Sanitätsdienst der Wehrmacht einberufen. Während er an der Front einen schwerverwundeten Soldaten betreute, wurde er selbst getroffen und starb am 26. September 1941 bei Kiew. Er war 27 Jahre alt.
