South Africas Department of Defence faces a significant challenge as Auditor-General Tsakani Malulekes report reveals they cant account for parts of their massive military asset base. This comes as 2,000 soldiers deploy for Operation Prosper, targeting illegal mining and gangs in several provinces. The DoD has struggled with audits for years, overspending by billions and facing material errors in their records. National security risks are raised due to these issues, with MPs demanding clear spending breakdowns. Deputy Minister Bantu Holomisa assures an audit action plan is in place, but concerns remain about the impact on the fight against crime.
