The AbaThembu nation has been thrust into an internal dispute after the controversial recent visit of King Buyelekhaya Dalindyebo to Israel.
Key royal houses AmaNdungwana and AmaQiya have issued a statement distancing themselves from the kings diplomatic engagements.
The AbaThembu king travelled to Israel as part of a delegation hosted by Israels foreign affairs minister, Gideon Saar. The purpose of the visit was for the king to gain an authentic picture of the situation on the ground after the October 7 2023 attack by meeting people and experiencing the country firsthand.
