| Reason: Blank article whose difference to the Namibian Liberation Struggle apparently cannot be proven even after a year-long discussion . It is not necessary to merge the articles as all brief information is contained in the main article; this would then have to be created as a forwarding after deletion. - Chtrede ( discussion ) 18:49, Aug 9, 2020 (CEST) |
The South African Border War , (in South Africa also known as the Angolan Bush War ), was a conflict that took place from 1966 to 1989 for the most part in South West Africa (now Namibia ) and Angola between South Africa and its allies (Party “National Union for the Complete Independence of Angola”, UNITA ) on the one hand and the Angolan government (party "South West African People's Organization", SWAPO ) and its allies (especially Cuba ) on the other. It was closely intertwined with the civil war in Angola and the Namibian liberation struggle .
