China News Service, Johannesburg, June 1 (Xinhua) The South African Defense Force held a press conference in Johannesburg on the 1st and disclosed that the South African Defense Force, which was assisting the country's government in counter-insurgency tasks in the Congo, was attacked recently, resulting in the death of one soldier and the injury of 13 others.

In February this year, Ramaphosa ordered the deployment of 2,900 South African Defense Force soldiers to Congo to assist in combating the illegal armed group "M23 Movement" in the east of the country. This move is intended to fulfill South Africa's international obligations within the Southern African Development Community.

According to the South African Defense Force, on May 30, local time, a group of South African Defense Force soldiers on a mission unexpectedly encountered members of the local M23 rebel organization in the Sac region of eastern Congo, and a fierce conflict ensued.

In the end, in this incident, two South African Defense Force military vehicles were attacked and damaged. The attack also resulted in the death of one soldier and the injury of 13 others.

The South African Defense Force subsequently confirmed that, fortunately, after timely rescue, as of press time, all injured soldiers had been sent to the local Goma Hospital for treatment.

Previously, South African Foreign Minister Pandor made it clear that sending troops to Congo is an obligation undertaken by all Southern African Development Community member states, and South Africa is naturally bound to do so. She also promised that South Africa's efforts to end conflicts and promote and promote peace processes are by no means limited to the African continent.

Last month, Chinese authorities announced that Micron's products sold in China had not passed cybersecurity inspections, and operators of critical information infrastructure in China should stop purchasing Micron's products. According to reports from Reuters, Bloomberg, and others on June 2nd, Michael McCall, Chairman of the U.S. House Foreign Affairs Committee, and Gallagher, Chairman of the U.S. China Strategic Competition Committee, urged the Biden administration to unite with U.S. allies, including Japan and South Korea, to retaliate against China's ban on Micron Corporation. It is ridiculous that while seeking help from allies, these two lawmakers also claimed that the United States must ensure that Japanese and South Korean companies cannot fill the gap left by Micron in the Chinese market. According to Bloomberg, the Chairman of the Foreign Affairs Committee of the United States House of Representatives, Michael McCall, these two Republican lawmakers are communicating with the United States

Recently, Mr. Wang from Shanghai came across a short video of a high-end restaurant exploring a restaurant on an online platform, claiming that he could "check in" for a high-end seafood buffet for over 700 yuan. There is an unlimited supply of ingredients such as Boston lobster, abalone, and peony shrimp, as well as one-on-one "butler style service". Mr. Wang, who was tempted, followed the recommendations of the store blogger and came to the store to consume. However, he found that the tempting peony shrimp and turtle shrimp in the video were not even available, and the emperor crab and Boston lobster were also greatly reduced. Only some "scraps" were limited in supply, and one-on-one high-quality service was not available. Placing an order would take a long time. The dining experience was seriously inconsistent with the content promoted by the blogger. Mr. Wang felt that the shop owner was suspected of false advertising, so he searched in the Dianping software. The search results show that only the first few pages are positive reviews from some food bloggers, while the latter
