Another Zimbabwean killed in Russia-Ukraine war

ANOTHER Zimbabwean has been killed in the Russia-Ukraine war, deepening fears that Russian recruiters are tightening their grip on vulnerable Africans as the conflict drags on.

This comes just weeks after the killing of Mandla Ncube, whose family is still reeling from news that he died on the battlefield when he reportedly travelled to Russia in search of work opportunities.

Fresh revelations contained in a new investigative report show that Zimbabwean nationals are among more than a thousand Africans drawn into the war.
