African Hawk-Eagle should not be found in KTP in Sasol's opinion.
Could it be a Wahlberg's Eagle or even a Tawny

Nan, I think that it is a chat Flycatcher, because I do not see anything chestnut coloured, nor the rump nor the outer tail nor the chin. This does not mean that Dewi is wrong, but...........

I'm thinking African Goshawk. Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe.

When I see a grey Goshawk in the Kgalagadi, I usually identify it as a Pale Chanting Goshawk without thinking too much. But I may be mistaken. When Peter posted his picture of a Gabar Goshawk, it reminded me of that bird :
Sorry, the picture is a bit blurred, but could it be a juvenile Gabar ? I think it is difficult to differentiate the 3 (Gabar, Pale and Dark Chanting). If someone has some tips on these species.
