Eight people died when a truck crashed into their commuter bus near the Dzivarasekwa turn-off on Harare-Bulawayo Road last Wednesday. The crash hurt eleven more people and has been named a national disaster by Zimbabwe's government. The families of those who died will receive help with funeral costs from the state.
President Mnangagwa reached out to everyone affected by this terrible event. He said he felt shocked and horrified when he heard about the deadly crash between the bus, a big truck, and a lorry. He pointed out how upsetting it is that Zimbabwe keeps losing lives on roads, mostly because of mistakes by drivers and vehicles that aren't safe.
The President asked bus riders and companies not to use dangerous road spots like...
Zimbabwe's President Mnangagwa has returned to Harare from Windhoek after attending both Namibia's 35th Independence Day celebration and the swearing-in ceremony for their new leader.

Zimbabwe wants to warn people about bad weather before it happens. At today's World Meteorological Day celebrations, Mr. Tadeous Chifamba spoke for the Ministry of Environment, Climate and Wildlife. He discussed how the government plans to improve weather tracking equipment and create better warning systems for communities.
They already installed automatic weather stations at all 47 locations throughout the country. Plus, they added 5 Doppler weather radars that cover Zimbabwe completely. These machines give instant data about storms and help predict weather patterns accurately.

Armed prisoner Luke Zinyengerere broke free from his Zimbabwe jail guards right at the Harare courthouse. He flashed a gun at the officers who were escorting prisoners to their transport van. Then he forced a driver out of their car and raced away. Everything went down super quick, similar to action movie scenes.
Someone probably smuggled that weapon to him during his stay at the remand prison, according to witnesses. Guards caught his partner, Tafadzwa Marondera, on the spot before he could run. Both men already had charges of armed robbery hanging over their heads. More news about this dramatic escape will follow as details emerge.
Zimbabwe official Nick Mangwana thinks the government should regulate churches because many religious scams pretend to be Christian. He doesn't follow any religion but believes genuine faith should comfort people and build community. Mangwana claims many Zimbabwe churches stray from these good intentions. Instead, they spread political unrest, enable child marriages, allow sexual misconduct, steal money, and behave like cults.
Mangwana points to recent events at Madzibaba Ishmael's farm as proof of dangerous cult activity. He finds it disturbing when people are pressured to give up their money or their children. What alarms him most is how easy starting a church has become. Anyone can find a rock somewhere, declare it sacred, plant a...

Most people know about Blessed Mhlanga facing charges under Section 136 of Zimbabwe's Criminal Law Act. The government claims he sent messages that stir up violence or property damage. His arrest clearly breaks Zimbabwe's Constitution and looks completely unlawful.
Both worldwide human rights agreements and Zimbabwe's laws say reporters must speak freely without limits. Zimbabwe signed the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights back in 1991. This agreement protects everyone's right to share ideas without anyone stopping them. They also signed the African Charter on Human Rights, which says every person can receive information and share their thoughts legally.
The Zimbabwe Constitution from 2013 clearly states in Section...
Cops just caught three guys who robbed Kirsty Coventry's mom and dad at their Harare home on March 10. The thieves took stuff worth more than $90,000, including several Olympic things that belonged to Coventry. John and Mike Nongwe, who happen to be brothers, face charges about the break-in when they show up at court Friday.
These brothers carried guns when they broke into the house. They tied Robert Edwin and Lyn Coventry's hands and feet with shoelaces, making them helpless inside their Glen Lorne neighborhood home. The bad guys searched every room and grabbed $15,000 cash plus jewelry valued at $60,000. They also stole three hair dryers, Coventry's Olympic swimsuits, travel bags, hearing aids worth $5,000, and three hunting guns...
Fans asked for years, and Ubisoft finally made it happen - "Assassin's Creed Shadows" takes us to feudal Japan. Players can pick between two main heroes - a fast shinobi who kills from the shadows or a mighty samurai warrior. These two bring totally different ways to play as you sneak around or fight head-on during Japan's roughest times. You'll find secret plots, change how history plays out, and master both sneaky moves and sword fighting on a huge open map.
The game keeps what made the series great but adds cool new stuff. The parkour lets you climb better than ever, hiding from enemies works better, and rain or shine affects how you play. You can jump between playing as the quick ninja or the strong samurai whenever you want. The...
