South African Troops Begin Exit from DRC as Peace Talks Show Progress

South Africa has started withdrawing its troops from the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) in what officials describe as a carefully planned move to support ongoing peace and mediation efforts in the region.

 

The South African National Defence Force (SANDF), which has been operating in the DRC alongside forces from Tanzania and Malawi, is pulling out its personnel and equipment in phases. This decision follows diplomatic discussions and signs of progress in restoring peace in the troubled eastern region of the DRC.

 

According to military leadership, the withdrawal should not be seen as an end to South Africa’s support, but rather a shift from military presence to political and diplomatic engagement. The move signals confidence that local authorities in the DRC are increasingly capable of managing internal security with reduced external involvement.

 

There is cautious optimism on the ground, especially after the M23 rebel group reportedly committed to a ceasefire and cessation of hostilities. High-level meetings between regional defence chiefs and the rebel leadership helped solidify that commitment, paving the way for this coordinated withdrawal.

Military officials emphasized that the decision was reached through collective planning among regional partners and not as a reaction to pressure or instability. Instead, they see it as a meaningful step toward long-term peace, driven by dialogue rather than force.

 

“This isn’t a retreat,” military leadership stressed, “it’s a transition into a new phase—one led by diplomacy, mediation, and development.”

 

As troops return home, South Africa remains committed to supporting the region through political partnerships and continued engagement aimed at building a stable and peaceful future in the DRC.
