Angola and Mozambique are like heaven on earth now that the portuguese left, 70 years ago.
Great health care, zero crime, the best medical schools in the world, flooded with aspiring doctors, they pratically export them.
Two great examples of how caucasian management halts countries from their true potential, once the blacks take over.

Yes, heard from a Mozambican car guard that they boil old leather army boots to drink the soup for food over there.

Most of them in SA working as car guards in parking lots or petrol attendants.

Read something about SA blacks being very inclusive regarding Mozambican and Somali migrants. Solidarity among them blacks is the norm because their lives matter, even in mother Africa.

I read that it was an old American helicopter. Like made in the 60s or some shit?!

From an outsider perspective it seems like it was a bad idea to have several very important people in the same helicopter. I read that it was very foggy. Transponder off to avoid attacks., made search slower, not that it would have helped. Of course many point the finger at Israel, hell if I know, but sometimes a helicopter crash is just a helicopter crash. Read some article where the author is sure it was an Israeli job, but how could the know for sure? No matter what anyone says, the conspiracy theorists will be SURE.

Iran denied any terror attack. But then people say of course they will say that, revenge is best served cold. If they said so now they would be forced to immediately retaliate.

Late 60's design, probably around 35 years old based on aircraft records. It was basically the civilian version of the Huey military chopper. Just from my reading it sounds like the standard private flight bs, crew was probably scared to say no.

They don't understand the concept of safety and doing risk assessments in most of the world outside of Europe, North America and Australia.

Then again people can go too far with it to like during covid.

Maybe Iran wanted to get rid of him, the same way the "US" wanted to get rid of JFK? Maybe Israel did it (gasp!). The question will be who benefits the most. I find it silly to think they would be this cavalier about their leader's safety, considering what happened to one of their generals recently.

There have been outbreaks of ‘xenophobic’ attacks mainly against foreign black store owners.

But in the work sector, doesn’t seem to be any real issues, though they do many jobs which locals prefer not to do. Most of the car guards, petrol attendants, garden services and freelance workers such as builders/plasterers/tilers are black foreigners. Somalis are mainly shop owners.

Mainly Zimbabwean, Mozambican, Congo, Angola. Though Angolans have a reputation for dealing in drugs and mafia links.

And that is why chinese auto industry (and pretty much all their industry) sucks big time. Many shortcuts are taken to reduce costs, resulting in defective and unreliable products.

Yeah, but choppers crash regularly everywhere. Remember Kobe and that country singer from Montgomery Gentry?

I suspect the real reason is crappy maintanance due to lack of spare parts. Iran was the most sanctioned country in the world before 2022 and had been so for decades.
