South Africa said it has received distress calls from 17 citizens trapped in eastern Ukraine after being lured to join mercenary forces under false job offers. The revelation comes as Russia launched a series of strikes on 142 foreign mercenary hubs across Donbas, raising fears the South Africans may be among those caught in combat zones. President Cyril Ramaphosa has ordered an investigation into illegal recruitment networks and vowed to bring the men home safely. The incident places renewed scrutiny on Pretoria’s neutral stance in the Russia–Ukraine conflict and its ties through the BRICS alliance.

A Canadian General once told me and said never forget, "All citizens are only a commodity to be used by governments as best fits their needs "!
🐂💩story. If they are 🤍, they went to fight. Let them figure it out.
Those foreign mercenaries are lying, saying, that they went to Ukraine just to work there.
They knew that they went there to kill Russians for money. They are just contract killers,
and should be treated for what they really are.
Lies Lies lies. I honestly don't believe them… They want there knowing very well.
These Africans are naive and stupid, they know what the Ukrainians has done to black people
We will fight for Russia free this time around
Complete propaganda
Why would anyone leave his country to work in a war torn country
How come they went to work in Russia and end up in Ukraine, I dont buy it.
This is fake, Russia wouldn’t hire fighters to fight against them for Ukraine. How stupid do you think people are?! 🙄
You can always tell when RUSSIA is LOSING BADLY, they start FLOODING YOUTUBE WITH BS CHANNLES CLAIMING THE REVERSE OF REALITY! IT IS RUSSIA who HAS HIRED the AFRICANS but this channel WILL try and show it as UKRAINE DOING what RUSSIA does, to HIDE the FACT RUSSIA IS AND HAS BEEN DOING IT FOR A LONG TIME. It is the UKRAINE FORCES KILLING the AFRICANS.
Why South Africa President never made it public it’s 100 white South Africans fighting for Israel against Hamas which is illegal in South Africa no South Africans can fight for a foreign country or fight in any conflict. I am sure the South Africans knows where they was going and since Russia I winning in eastern Ukraine and no Russian soldiers are encircled so I’m going to assume they fighting for Ukraine it’s only logical explanation
Are they not adults? And accountable for their own actions????
