South African Special Forces in Mozambique | December 2021

19/09/2026 · Liveth For Evermore

Descrição

In July 2021, South Africa deployed troops, including Special Forces, into Mozambique to help eliminate the enemy threat in the North of the country. However, the South African contingent was greatly ill-equipped and under-resourced for the mission at hand, with little to no close air support, too few transport aircraft and no supporting Infantry to reinforce the gains made by the Special Forces. These shortcomings tragically came to the forefront in December 2021 when a South African-Mozambican patrol was left stranded behind enemy lines and facing a significantly larger enemy force.

As a South Africa I’m really happy to see you do a video on my country on your channel! Rip to those KIA

13 South African Special Forces Brigade soldiers passed away in the Central African Republic Civil War in 2013, so it's not the first time since 1989. The Recces are very capable and incredibly competent, the issue is the funding and having politicians who know nothing about military service making decisions that result in our soldiers dying. Thank you to all these great men for their service 🇿🇦 Edit: I apologize, I was mistaken about my first comment on the SF soldiers being KIA in 2013. It was actually soldiers of the 1 Parachute Battalion and thank you to everyone who brought this to my attention.

I'm a South African and just want to say thank you for doing this video. Shows that no matter how well trained and motivated troops are without good CC, planning and adequate resources they are vulnerable. RIP.

As a South African, thank you for making a video on this topic, I hope it brings to light the fight that our boys are conducting in the region 🇿🇦

Very cool that you’re covering the SA recces. 🇿🇦. Our guys don’t get the credit they deserve . Read up about their exploits in Bangui

That's a different type of courage there. Going into a fight knowing beforehand that you have no backup.

Thank you for reporting this, I'm a South African and no one is talking about this. Corporal Tebogo Radebe we thank you for your service, R.I.P my brother 🇿🇦❤️

When news came of this gentleman's passing it hurt me, because many South Africans were obviously to what was happening in Mozambique, and the sacrifice this soldier and his comrades made. Many of us are sorry to his family for their loss, we're equally proud to have men of such high quality working in the shadows in defence of the little freedom we have. RIP our hero.
