South Africa talks with Russia. This is about 17 people. They are from South Africa. They are in Ukraine now.
These people are part of a war. They say they were tricked. They thought they had good jobs. Now, they must fight.
The leaders in South Africa hear this. They get messages. They see the problem is big. They find a plan. Men were told lies.
Some people say a woman did this. She made fake job offers. But she says she was tricked too.
The men were told to be guards. Or they would get training. They were sent to fight instead. This is not good.
The president's helper says it is hard. The people are in danger. South Africa talks most with Russia. They want their people back.
Families are very worried. They want their loved ones home. They are very anxious.
This shows people can be tricked. South Africa wants to help. They work with Russia. They want to bring people home. This is hard work.
