 U.S announces visa curbs for some foreign nationals in South Africa Secretary of State Marco Rubio ‌said on Tuesday the U.S. government was announcing a new visa restriction ​policy targeting some foreign nationals ​in South Africa. The policy targets "foreign ⁠nationals who are responsible for, ​or complicit in, the enactment or ​implementation of laws or policies that enable uncompensated land seizures, race-based discrimination, and/or ​the incitement of imminent violence ​against members of minority ethnic or racial ‌groups ⁠in South Africa," Rubio said in a statement. "The South African government has not adequately addressed the ​previously laid ​out ⁠concerns," Rubio said, Reuters reported. Relations between Washington and Pretoria have ​soured since the start of ​Donald ⁠Trump's second term, with the U.S. president criticizing the country ⁠for ​its policies aimed at ​addressing racial inequality.

 Saudi Arabia to Invest $5 Billion in AI Data Center


A Saudi firm is set to invest $5 billion in constructing an artificial intelligence (AI) data center in the futuristic city of NEOM, according to state media reports.


The agreement, signed between DataVolt and NEOM, will fund the development of a fully sustainable AI data center with a 1.5-gigawatt capacity, the Saudi Press Agency (SPA) stated.


The facility will be built in Oxagon, an industrial hub within NEOM, which is envisioned to become the world’s largest floating industrial complex.


NEOM, a key project under Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman’s Vision 2030 initiative, includes The Line, a 170-kilometer mirrored megacity designed to accommodate up to nine million residents by 2045. However, recent estimates suggest 300,000 residents by 2030.


Saudi Arabia’s ambitious NEOM project also includes Sindalah, a luxury Red Sea resort, which became the first operational part of the development in late 2024. The initiative aligns with the kingdom’s post-oil economic diversification strategy.
