Members of the Baster community are gathered at Samkhubis, west of Rehoboth, to commemorate a battle which took place more than a century ago.

Kaptein of the Rehoboth Baster Community, Jacky Britz, has called on the government to recognise the 1915 Battle of Sam !Khubis.

Many Baster people died after facing the unforgiving wrath of the German colonial regime.
