Recent escalations in the eastern DRC have led to significant involvement of South African troops as part of the Southern African Development Community (SADC) Mission in the DRC (SAMIDRC). This mission aims to support the DRC government in restoring peace and stability in the region. Unfortunately, the conflict has resulted in casualties among South African soldiers, with 13 reported fatalities and several injuries during clashes with the M23 rebel group. Global news outlets have in recent days reported that some critically injured South African troops are being evacuated, sparking questions about our role in this conflict.
