Back to EpisodesGhana's Casualties in Ukraine War: 55 Dead, 2 POWs
Description
Ghanas foreign minister discloses that at least fifty-five Ghanaians have perished in the Ukraine war, with two more held captive. Most were allegedly recruited through online schemes promising jobs. Ghana is now combating illegal networks and raising awareness to deter young people from these traps. Families are devastated, and Ghana views these individuals as victims of scams, not fighters. Kenyan authorities charged a man for luring recruits to Russia under false job offers, while South Africa confirmed two citizens killed and fifteen brought home. Ghana requested Ukraine to release its two prisoners, who are reportedly healthy and well-treated. African nations are intensifying efforts to bring their people home safely.
