- Julius Malema, leader of South Africa's EFF party, has reiterated his commitment to chanting 'Kill the Boer,' describing it as part of South Africa's anti-apartheid heritage.
- US President Donald Trump confronted South African President Cyril Ramaphosa with video evidence of the chant during a White House meeting, labeling it as genocidal rhetoric.
- Afriforum has argued that South Africa's failure to condemn the chant violates the Genocide Convention and undermines its genocide case against Israel at the ICJ.

- The ICJ has granted Israel additional time to respond to South Africa's genocide accusations, following procedural disputes regarding evidence access.
