Mercenary Activities

Duduzile Zuma-Sambudla, an MP for South Africa's uMkhonto Wesizwe party, has resigned with immediate effect following charges of human trafficking and fraud related to recruiting party supporters for Russia's war in Ukraine. Her half-sister accused her of luring 17 South African men, including family members, under false pretenses for bodyguard training that turned into frontline combat. President Cyril Ramaphosa has ordered an investigation into the matter.
