"Stop killing our children!", is the anguished cry from mothers across many of the Cape Flats communities plagued by gangsterism. In this week's episode we examine the reasons behind the SANDF's deployment to the Cape Flats. The army is acting as support to SAPS, moving in to combat the ever-increasing gang violence suffered in these communities.

We gave the mic to Minister Albert Fritz, Cape Provincial Minister of Community Safety; retired DA chief whip Mark Wiley and JP Smith: Mayoral Committee Member for Safety and Security of the City of Cape Town.

To better understand the situation on the ground, we asked Mitchells Plain cluster Community Policing Forum (CPF) chairperson Lucinda Evans and Luke Koeries of Kids are Kids in Ocean View to outline what life - lived in these affected communities - is like. Their lives are filled with horror, gunshots.. and hope.

With sincere thanks to everyone who added their voice, insight and experience. We have learned a great deal.
