South Africa is hosting the China‑led “Will for Peace 2026” naval exercise in Cape Town waters, with warships from BRICS nations including China, Russia and Iran docking ahead of drills focused on maritime security and safeguarding trade routes. The move has raised concerns in Washington and triggered debate over Pretoria’s foreign policy alignment amid strained US ties

South Africa shitting themselves so selling out to China and Russia 😅😅😂😂😅!!!!
Ramaphosa must go so we can leave this BRICS countries

…and the currencies are: rubbles, yuans, pesos, drahmas…and many other toilet paper(s)…the international lang. spoken in this exercise is …? aa US english ! )))) ….farts ''powers''
The worse in the world lol ,ethioyspia ship lol. Brazil has enough emulation for 1 hour of war ,it’s president lula is so corrupt that the Brazilian airforce has no money to buy fuel for its plane hahaha ,what a joke ,block of corrupts muderes dictators of poor broken countries ,sure trump is worried 😅
I sincerely hope NSRI is on duty to save the non swimmers !
BRICS "minus" INDIA:
India has rejected Brazil's proposal of de-dollarization in BRICS summit last year 2025.
Same as India's EAM Jaishankar at Doha Forum Dec 2024, "…We have always said that India has never been for de-dollarisation, … US is our largest trade partner, we have no interest in weakening the dollar at all"
No Jesus No Peace
Humanity needs Jesus 🙏 Repent
Every time The ANC's SANDF plays battleships, or war games, a few of their members die in some way. Be interesting to see how many this time.
Don't agree with dis shit south africa is look for trouble and do not ask the people what they want dis is not the people choice
We are the rainbow nation not a war nation Stop stoking the fire ANC and we are a small country
There is a regime change in Iran, but they send a boat to SA, wonder how many top Iranian officials used this ship as a way to escape mob justice
Ha, Trump doesn't even know what countries are in BRICS. He thinks the S in the acronym is Spain. Idiot. Now he must have figured out what it really means. And he has the nerve to lecture journalists. Pathetic.
The only ship the ANC could provide for exercises is the Floppy Forces Floating Tea-house and Tuckshop from Table Bay.
where is India? Ramaphosa has more nerve than Modi
South Africa was in the White House begging Trump for help and groveling at his feet but now these spear chuckers go and pull some shyt like this.
Indian people are many things, but stupidity is NOT one of them. It is NOT the majority South African people that invited these PRICS, but the minority ANC government. Please India, don't fall for these lies!

Stop lying about Russia, China, and Iran “scaring” the West with military drills. The United States has the strongest military in the world, and we are not intimidated.
Russia can’t even defeat Ukraine after four years of war.
Iran just got rocked in a 12‑day conflict and can’t even control its own people because the citizens hate the regime.
China can’t defeat Taiwan — they already tested the U.S. in 1954 and 1958 and failed.
In June 2025, China tried to flex in the South China Sea, and the U.S. made it clear who was in charge. China walked away looking foolish.
Venezuela, Iran, and Pakistan have all used Chinese weapons in conflicts — and none of them stood a chance.
The reality is simple:
• Russia isn’t winning
• Iran is unstable
• China isn’t ready
• The U.S. remains dominant
So save the lies and the nonsense.
Viva South Africa Viva
Good news 🇿🇦
What about india
Ag SA julle slaan jul naam met n plank man shame 😮😮😮
The rowing boat was the south African navy in its totality 😂
This is very good Indian nevy need to join this exercise.
4 whole ships 😂
SA doesn't have anything to show thats why they are the battle slash training grounds
How will Trump react to the war drills?
Will Trump free Iran while the enemy fleets are off on an African cruise?
Targeting Iranian oil refineries are a target if no UN nuclear inspectors are allowed. It would be easier to talk with Iran about peace with those war ships away play games.
56 inch skipped
I’d be scared if I was any brics nations. Russian and Chinese air defense systems are worthless against American aircraft. So good luck when your air forces and navies are destroyed
Brics show USA we are not afraid of them
What a joke
Anc is playing with fire..i hope they don't burn their fingers again
I wouldn’t be surprised if BRICS become a military alliance to soon be part of the operation worldwide. The EU or NATO along with UN is useless. A groups of criminals!
Premonition of War. The Exodus has begun.
China and Russia effectively closed the most Southern sea trade for the neo nazi West.
South Africa's military is weak because they recruited people based on skin color, not merit.
Where’s India?
