SADC troops to download when the M23 rebels earn a reason

South African leaders have announced that they will bring out their troops from the Eastern Democratic Republic of Congo, where they help government fights fight the rebels.

The troops were sent two years ago to support the Congoan army, fighting the M23 -backed bunnies, which takes control of large parts of the East Congo -rich Minerals this year.

At least 19 soldiers from South Africa, Malawi and Tanzania were killed when the M23 conquered the largest city in the region, Goma, in January.

Thousands of people were killed during the fighting and hundreds of thousands were left without shelter after escaping from their homes.

There are fears that fighting can escalate to a broader regional conflict.

The M23 continues to win in the eastern Dr. Congo, and last month seized the second largest city in the region, Bukavu.

The deployment of South Africa was heavily criticized by the public and the opposition after the murder of its soldiers.

Sandile Swanda, a South African political analyst, told the BBC that it was a “disturbing” situation for the country.

“The rebels are very strong. This is a complete war and South Africa is hardly ready for such a war,” he said.

He added: “No country in the SADC region is ready for this war – psychological, military and political.”

In February, Malawi's President said his troops would be withdrawn from D -C CongoAlthough it did not give a reason.

The decision to start a “gradual withdrawal” by Dr. Congo was taken during a virtual summit of the 16-member community for the development of South Africa (SADC) in the capital of Zimbabwe, Harare, on Thursday.

SADC leaders have said that although the troops will be withdrawn from the Congo, the block will continue to “support interventions aimed at bringing lasting peace.”

No reason was given.

SADC called for a diplomatic and political decision of the conflict.

Previous efforts to implement peace on D -C Congo were not successful.

It was the third SADC summit for the Congo in recent months.

It is not clear how many SADC troops are in Congo, but 5,000 troops had to be sent.

South Africa, who was leading the mission, had to unfold 2,900 soldiers and the rest shared between Malawi and Tanzania.
