Nelson Mandela Day is an international observance in honor of the iconic South African anti-apartheid leader Nelson Mandela, observed annually on his birthday, on July 18.

The people of South Africa during the years of apartheid took inspiration from the heroic resistance of Palestinians in their struggle for the liberation of Israeli-occupied territories, says Nelson Mandela's grandson.

The spokesperson for the Iranian Foreign Ministry says Washington has no right to support human rights or democracy.

The Nelson Mandela Foundation has hit back at alleged remarks by US President Donald Trump that disparaged the former South African leader.

Winnie Mandela, the former wife of South African anti-apartheid icon Nelson Mandela, died in a Johannesburg hospital after a long illness.

US President Donald Trump is perhaps the world's most famous Twitter user, but the most popular post of 2017 was from Barack Obama.
