Ask any South African what our soldiers are doing in Congo, none can tell.
Bring our soldiers home!!!!!
They are protecting the interest of WMC and ANC cadres, they have mines there.
Let them stay and come back home in boxes... ANC should stop warmongering..
SANDF are only known of their Cowardice beer and women even when you see them passing, a gun is heavy on themselves. So anyone with a reasonable mind would support Mr President for sending these troops. They are learning real fight and one day it will pay because SA also never know when it can be attacked. Imagine a big country like this without experienced military it is horrible ! They are also trying to helping bring peace there so that numbers of refugees coming here reduce since many here in this country are xenophobic and don't like other Africans.
@@user-qq2oh4pt9h ce ne pas seulement les intérêts de l'anc non
Ce plutôt des intérêts de nos deux nations
Il ya des accord très bénéfique entre nos deux pays est tant que la guerre continue ce nos deux nations qui perd
l'Afrique du Sud inspire la puissance, est aujourd'hui les sud africain est confronté a plusieurs choses qui risquent de d'affaiblir l'Afrique du Sud
Nous sommes en partenariat, est nos deux pays sont tous membres de la sadec au cas d'urgence il nous faut s'entre aider
Our soldiers dying while on the wrong side of history. People fighting for their rights are called rebels
We are preventing the western powers from carving up the DRC for its resources. Rwanda and Uganda want to take parts of Kivu for themselves.
Pushing for Ramaphosa and his friends minning interest.Why choose to support war over dialogue.
Man that’s how it is,freedom fighters are now called rebels
Écouter nos chers frères de l'Afrique du Sud
Renseignée vous bien avant de rencontrer de bobards
Les tutsi n'ont aucun droit a revendiqué au Congo
Ils sont là pour la volonté des 2 personnes
Kagame et museveni
Alors arrête de parler du n'importe quoi pour cracher au mémoire des tous les innocents qui sont morts
Entre nous et vous ce sont des accords est ces accords ne date pas d'aujourd'hui
Donc fermée vos gueules
Croyez-vous que si vous partez le Congo n'existerait plus
Anyway DRC didn't ask south Africa to come fight M23 if south Africa sent it soldiers to DRC it because south Africa are member of SADAC.
Rwanda army and south African army fighting terro group in Mozambique it's similar situation with war in DRC.
If south Africa worried about losing soldiers in DRC you can pull out yo force you r free.
But I promise the whole world that one day will be no more war in DRC and Rwanda regime will be change one day.
All eyes in DRC coz of what we have🙏
Why are our SA soldiers even there? Taxpayers in SA are paying for this and members are dying😢
Knowing the fact that M23 are Congolese fighting for their rights, I will never understand why SADEC and MONUSCO are on the side of other more than 200 militia and FDLR (Genocidaire) to fight only one group freedom fighters (M23).
That's lies that Paul Kagame is telling you people, Congo is big country why would we refuse our Citizens?
@@M.I.B_cpt and why do you think they are fighting for rights which clearly refused if they are citizens?, why are 100 thousands in refugee camp in Rwanda
Have ever read any UN report about what going on in Eastern Congo or you are just a rwandan tutsi trying to spread kagame's propaganda in the region !
You will never rule DRC or you will face something more terrible than 1994 so called genocide !
As refugees who is in currently living in one of Rwandan refugee camp who is denied a right of return on my ancestral land my fellow southern Africans should leave this matter between as Congolese . M23 is not going to stop this time around .
So you are a tutsi puppet used for Kagame's mining interest in eastern Congo ! Stay in your Rwanda, a supposed African Singapore
Why are south africans even there.
A weird sadc pact that was signed
to steal their resources, such as gold and diamond
To fight Tutsi supremacy.
@@meisievannancy bcz Malema said SANDF has never fought a war and eating money for nothing. So let them go nd face true war in Congo ; anyway in exchange Ramaphosa will be getting coltan, copper, diamond,gold...etc
Meanwhile malema has never faught a war and is eating money for nothing. The little hypocrite. @@billalex
The failure of the Anc government over the years has collapsed the sandf operating with very lower budget resulting to poor training/capabilities of the defence force,they collapsed Denel, Armscor due to lack of capable discipline leadership in the companies,mismanagement, underfunding, now we are operating with old rusted equipment,In the air force we have no lethal drones, no fighter jets they're old and always broken,no attack helicopters they're old and broken,In the Artillery force we have no longrange missiles at least 1500km,no missile launchers,no air defence missile systems,no intercontinental ballistic missiles,no cruise/hypersonic missiles,no tanks,no thermobaric bombs.Navy force has no even single,frigates,corvettes,Destroyers, no submarines they're old technology we cannot stand the operation that's is why we are loosing a number soldiers due to lack of air support and advanced defence equipment technology in the operation.We must increase defence budget to at least 15billion dollars to develop a new powerful Equipped Sandf,introducing compulsory military services after after grade12/matric to improve our youth skills and their capabilities,to instill discipline,respect, togetherness,and patriotism mentality and a capable discipline military industrial complex with cutting edge technology to produce high quality defence equipment for our national security forces,also for world market.
💯
Ramaphosa has a case to answer
What about those that died years back in CAR. They were also protecting WMC and ANC cadres business(Mines).
This has been going on for years, way before Ramaphosa could be President
@@user-qq2oh4pt9htyoo really
Let the DRC sort out their own issues. The SANDF is incapable of resolving these issues. SA soldiers should remain at home.
But other countries didn't abandon the ANC struggle against the apartheid regime. Now that you are free, forget not, leaving them to "sort their own issues" is being selfish.
@@paulkagumire4985 Exactly our continent is supposed to work together, fight for each other but a lot of Africans are still under the spell of separation.
Why is s.africa with 55million people fighting on behalf of congo with over 100million?wht are all those millions doing?
Dancing dombolo yasolo😂
@@mujunironald220 😂🤣🤦♂️
@@fredkaijuka7717 That's what they do best. Imagine a nation bigger than Rwanda 89 times but they use the same small neighbour as a scapegoat for their incompetence? Who does that?
They are not fighting for free
@@user-yd2fy7rx7w so u mean the Congolese citizens are not paid thats why they bring in RSA?
Is DRC a Province of South Africa as our Soldiers are placed there
Why can't Congolese men in SA be drafted in the military to fight for their country instead of using our own military? ANCA is stupid
Those Congolese are waiting for South African men to be reduced and then take over South Africa. 😂😂😂😂😂
lol, they are busy bleaching themselves and dancing to Makosa and sukusu music
@@christopherxevier2359😂😂😂😂you're a bad guy😂😂😂
@@christopherxevier2359you’re very stupid
It's SADC soldiers not SA soldiers only! The number of Congolese soldiers fighting there is more than 15 times the SA soldiers
There is no M23 rebels but now it s Rwanda defense forces well equipped which are fighting in DRC
😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂
You are out of information
M23 are purely Congolese fighting for their right
Quel ignorance
Les tutsi n'ont aucun droit a réclamé aux Congo
Ce sont des marionnettes qui sont là pour exécuter l'ordre de kagame et museveni, qui est d'arracher une partie du Congo
@@mupri21😂😂Man don't you have a sense of humour?This is sarcasm relax😂
What is SA doing in Congo 🤷♂️
Well Said Mzee Mbeki !!!
Mbeki is a dog with no teeth!
Guys South Africa has its own problems to be dealing with others people's problem and we need to fund this madness
Mr. Mbeki is a wise man and he knows the real rootcauses of conflict in eastern congo. Without solving the rootcauses of the war, no one should ever be lied that there's any force which can ever defeat a people who are fighting for their own survival and genuine causes that need to be addressed as soon as possible through any means necessary but preferably with peacetalks ratherthan congo wasting resources on a war it can never win. Any foreign intervation on congolese soil is only exacerbating the conflict by taking sides in a political internal issue that should be addressed internally with peacetalks. Samidrc together with their allies who are blindly bombing densely populated areas where civilians are losing their precious lives will eventually make this a regional war if they don't come to their senses and realise that Congolese who are fighting want their people who are living in very worse conditions around greatlakes region refugee camps and beyond to come back to their homeland where the government and their foreign corporations are exploiting their lands for the colonizers and their agents.
Bra 100% corrected
False! Mbeki's version is a false version... everyone knows now... it's no secret...Ramaphosa knows... that's why he still has his soldiers there!!!!
Why South Africa and what are doing there
To protect the mines of Thabo mbeki and cyril
I will never trust ramaphosa in any discussions for solution...
The dead soldiers are 19 soldiers not only 2 ,
Lies only two. Ask Paul kagame how many of his soldiers died
The real question is why does it seem like our guys are the only ones dying
Because the congolese are not native to the land they fighting on so they need mercenaries, it doesn’t make sense how 100m people need south africans to die for them
If u follow the war in DRC than u know they not the only ones
After all, historically and regionally, only 4 leaders saw this Eastern DRC situation for what it is: Tata Madiba, Robert Mugabe, Jacob Zuma and H. Geingob.
And they sent troops in consequence.
Look what Thabo Mbeki did with his political approach, the1+4. The military side if it enabled the RDF who backed RCD to be brassed with the Congolese regular army. The origin of M23...
Add a number to only what Rwanda has benefited from this mafia since 1998 ($15bn) and you understand what Tshisekedi is talking about.
Remember, at the beginning, He also thought political negotiations were the solution. He even accepted naively Kenyatta deal to join EAC. He was in Burundi on official visit when Kagame via his foreign affairs minister informed him that Kagame was about to send more troops in DRC against FARDC (2 years ago...).
Data are out there for everyone to consult freely.
Do your jobs and make the right move now. This is WAR against SADC.
All these EAC are over indebted (see Kenya the leader of EAC), they need DRC'S minerals. PERIOD.
SADC must take this seriously. All reports from not only UN but also France Belgium, the USA are very clear. These are not Civilians but regular armies from Rwanda,Uganda and Kenya.
Either you take it for what it is or pull out
The same person gogo is interviewing is directing orders to target SAn soldiers.
If SADC doesn't want to do what Zuma and Mugabe did, there will be consequences. And we all know that.
Yes, Rwanda has boots in Congo-RDC....this is what many here do not understand! Kagame has managed to fool a lot of South Africans with his fake narrative!
@@JoziYeboMan-nn7rmwhenever I hear some one talking about reports made by the so called UN
America, France, Belgium and other European ruthless countries I immediately understand that you are just have a long way to go by learning about those colonialists and know that whenever you see in any situation their reports out absolutely know that they are the troublecouser !!!
Rwanda is powerful and experienced. You can't win
Tutsi!😂
@@jeantm4223What do you mean? Is tutsi a misile? Why bringing a tribe in this war story? That is why extremists always loose wars. Ex Hitler, Kmer rouges, Genocidal government of Habyarimana....Divisioonissa never win a war! Please know it.
@@gaspard4336that why Congo government and its allies will lose automatically this war because their fighting base on one ideology called fighting tutsi supremacy! Can you imagine!! Or Bantu group against Nilotics!!! Can you imagine such primitive ideology into this age of ours please!! May be you don't know the main cause behind this war but that is the reality!! That's why they will absolutely lose this war!! Trust me!!
@@mulisapatrick8070 Tutsi-Hima empire will never happen.
@@RyanJackson-ns3gd who cares!? Am I the one who established that conspiracy theory!? You PARMEHUTUS you are the ones who brought that Conspiracy theory in order to eliminate those to whome you don't belongs to the same ethnic group!!! So if that theory keep diminishing day after day, and lose its ideological power then you PARMEHUTUs at the end of the day you are the loser!!! Because you created it as your pretext and a weapon to eliminate and terminate those who belong to that ethnic group!! But your project has already failed for ever and ever!!!
When senior commanders die in an attack like this,it speaks of the core of the problem,the lower rank solders and their commanders are useless,every base can not just be attack,it hve to be protected with guards and patrols around the base to keep the outer perimiter safe
We talking of an indirect fire here,mortar attacks,those are fired from up the mountains, no one has control over those but the opposition launching those bombs
South Africa🇿🇦 has to improve sandf,we cannot pull our troops out of the Drc will continue to fight M23 we also have geo political interest and economic interest to protect in the Drc pulling out is not a strategic decision.
Why is South Africa not going on offensive..?
Maybe we should stop this thing were you apply to join the army we should have walk in because we love our country toooo
I think fighting M23 is a bad idea what D.R.C needs is improved governance so that the Banamulenge people can feel included but anyway I hope this will make the government realise SANDF really needs serious investments not budget cuts.
All African Union should come to resolve the issue within them because it's the boundaries that separates them otherwise it's Africans to unite them as family.
That's why Kenya left..you can't help a country that doesn't want to be helped both citizens, rebels n govt have a problem
Yes....
South Africa come back don't Killed our Brother for Nothing
Protecting there Gold and minerals with our Sons a Fathers. Refuse to die for there greed.
What are they doing there
Any kinyarwanda speaking soldier in m23 who dies in this war do it with honour because they are defending the right to live on the land their great great grand fathers were born on (and has no other place to call home) . In fact that fallen soldier becomes a motivation for the cause . What I wonder is why the SADEC forces are dying in eastern congo? Haven't they heard ? the m23 has vowed to fight until the last drop of blood. We have a hundred thousand rwandanphone congelese refugees in rwanda, other hundreds of thousands are in uganda(possibly from different tribes) and also there those scattered around the world . These are the people m23 is fighting for . It's where they get their support that is financial support and recruitment of soldiers as well .
SADEC do you really think you'll wipe all of them out ? There is no military solution to this problem only a political solution.
I am really saddened by the death of those soldiers it really shouldn't be happening like this. There is no need for war. The root causes of the problem are clear like the east African leaders have been explaining.
Until the government in Kinshasa seats down with m23 , this war will keep raging on for years to come. It's only been more than twenty years now.
anything other than talks is a waste of time. SADEC should know that.
False....big lies....soon the truth will be more publicized....not your fake version of things
@@jeantm4223 Not a lie. The more Kinshasa delays to negotiate they will go down.
I promise you will see that if you are luck. you can't fight someone who has nothing to lose and win.
Rwanda government is the cause of the problem.
Why us it that when the M23 rebels get killed you never reported even when the get pushed from the occupied never said anything.
So once anything happened to drcongo arm or the allies get killed you keep on praising the rebels and ruandaise arms.
😂,,,😂😂😂 truth hurts
Pushed!!😅😅😅!! Can you give us only one place did Congo armed forces and its allies pushed M23 even 1cm please!! You are just saying nonsense!!
This leders for today if you are not wise you are going to perish for nothing
One if those soldiers is my brother 😭
Sorry for your loss 🙏
My deepest condolence😢
My condolences to you ND family 🙏
Tell your president to call his troops back. You guys are trying to kill these native rabels who are fighting for their human rights against a government that's persecuting them.
SADCC should rethink their strategy. South Africa should stop thinking these are just rebels, these are Rwandan forces fighting alongside M23 and their strategy is to break up the DRC like South Sudan was created from main Sudan. South Africa should convince the SADCC countries neighbouring DRC ie Angola and Zambia to join the fight to dislodge these so called rebels. You need more firepower and numbers.
South africa what are u doing their
This DRC problem will never end South Africa is just joking
Ramaphosa will regret to took a soldiers in Congo, because he dont know what is M23 is, they are congolese fighting their life, so you can't stand in front of them
Nothing new here. When taxi had accident they would say two vendas died and six shangaans. But six zulu people survived and one Mosotho people also survived. They are trying to contact family members of people who survived.
😂This comment finished me
Accidentally nyokomulirooooo
ANC of Cyril is the course
This conflict has hidden hands behind it. Follow the money. The country is extremely rich. Why are South African soldiers giving their lives for these imperialist exploitation. The locals there must stand up for themselves and their national interests.
Ramaphosa's judgement is clouded by his son being the son in law of Museveni (the mastermind of everything. He did everything for RPF and Kagame since 1980s) and Thabo Mbeki (follower of Nierere of Tanzania who himself was the mastermind of the eviction from power of Idi Amin Dada of Uganda).
If I can make such analysis and connections based on facts, how come SADC strategists and SABC analysts can't!!! WOW).
It is concerning...
If I decide to join President Tshisekedi as an advisor, DRC will shine in less than a year. But I have better to do for myself and my family.
It is long to read, but that's will help
In Jesus Name! Amen.
This is absolutely true
You are simply stupid if you think that this information you claim to have is anything special or can help to change anything😂😂😂 Things are not that simple as you think or make it to be

Why African children fighting?
Kagame Wants to take control of DRC and lot minerals. For years he has tried
Why should our defiance force should die for other nation.The DRC workout they're own problems.people brought problems always.
Don't you know that Tanzanians, Zambians and Mozambican died for the freedom of your country?
@@lwakainazathere's a difference...D.R C has been in constant wars since the 90s...every country in Africa had people who died for our freedom and it was our wish that people in south africa have freedom as well...D.R.C is free but they have constant civil war
😮😮
Africans what are you fighting for?
We must protect Cyril's diamond mines. South African soldiers are happy to chuck their lives away as long as Cyril Ramapoesa get rich.
How do these poor congo groups keep getting weapons? The colonializers give weapons in exchange for the rich resources. Congo is the riches country on earth and can use the money to build into the Dubia of Africa. Congo has resources nobody in the world has so they can sell at any rate.
Resources without knowledge to harness them tantamounts to nothing
Please Rwanda 🇷🇼 and Uganda must be taken in icc
Rubbish
Leave my two beautiful countries alone nd they should take s.african who killed other African people nd ordering them to leave their country nd leave whites only
Nonsense
What do you expect minister of military. Is old grandma
Thabo Mbeki.....your a failure
You don't know Pan-Africanism
South AFRICA IS WASTING BROOD FOR NOTHING.
TF they doing there. Get those soldiers back home.
So bad

Kagame is a liar and thief of minerals in D.R.C
Yes Kagame is a professional liar! Look how he managed to lie to most South Africans, even to the SABC, presenting himself as a saint
that song of minerals is old song. why DRC doesn't profit from them?
Okie defend those minerals,😏😏😏😏😏
@@always-onlinebecause they don't control the mines, the Rwanda military(M23) does. Hence refuges in other countries like, Zambia, South Africa and others.
DRC has to consider shifting the boarder lines so that the Kinyarwanda Congolese speakers go back to Rwanda
