Ekurhuleni killings: advocates demand state action on gender-based violence

Nine women's bodies were found in Ekurhuleni, South Africa, prompting gender-based violence advocates to call for structural state intervention and systemic justice, rejecting the framing that women must bear the burden of their own safety. The incident underscores persistent failures in addressing femicide and GBV in the country. The full scope of the case and any arrests remain unclear.
