The South African Defence Force has been plunged into mourning once more, as the grim toll of the conflict-torn DRC claims another soldier. A South African soldier, deployed under the United Nations Mission (MONUSCO), has lost their life while serving in the country. This latest casualty comes on the heels of a recent mortar attack by M23 rebels on a base in eastern DRC, which claimed the lives of two SANDF troops and left 20 others injured last month. Joining Elvis Presslin for the latest on this developing story is SANDF spokesperson, Siphiwe Dlamini
