South Africa's Defence Committee Urges Urgent Action to Reverse SANDF Decline

South Africa's Portfolio Committee on Defence and Military Veterans has called for urgent intervention to reverse the decline of the SANDF, citing persistent resource shortages, financial pressures, and governance weaknesses. The committee's statement highlights a deteriorating defence capability, though specific measures or funding commitments remain unspecified. This signals growing political attention to military readiness in a key African state, with potential implications for regional security and peacekeeping contributions.
