1998 SADC Intervention In Lesotho 🇱🇸 Stats
Lesotho🇱🇸 Defeated South Africa🇿🇦
19 Lesotho Defense Force members were killed. 16 were at Katse Dam patrolling, while 3 were killed during the war in Makoanyane Barracks
63 South African Soldiers were killed.
3 South African firebomber helicopters were bombed by Lesotho. 2 are still remaining in Lesotho, 1 in Makoanyane Barracks next to military hospital and another one in Ratjomose Barracks at the gate. The 3rd helicopter was shot in Lesotho and bombed when it landed in South Africa 🇿🇦
We have found that, Lesotho was not informed about the war, soldiers were relaxed without an armor and some of them were at homes. Most had to use their personal fi****ms to defend themselves. Lesotho Defense Force at Ratjomose surrendered to SANDF but those at Makoanyane denied. The mission was political and politicians who had won elections knew about the mission but never warned an army to be alert. Also, the politicians were the ones helping SANDF on which places to attack and which not to because of danger, including the likes of Setibing Military Base.
This is the hidden information that you never hear about because Lesotho is Underated.
I post this because of South African comments on our previous post.
Politicians Never Loved Lesotho🇱🇸
Lesotho is Underated in public and overated in silence. The whole world knows the truth. Find why United Kingdom has a base named after Basotho. "Basotho Military Squadron"
We don't have to be proud about this as we're all Africans, I have just seen that people don't know the truth
