About 400 people on the Cape Peninsula have been left homeless following three major fires in informal settlements the past few days.
At least 100 wood-and-iron structures, as well as two houses were gutted in the blazes. In the latest of the three fires, an adult male has died in a shack fire in Philippi early this morning.
In a fire yesterday in Valhalla Park, Elsies River, an injured fire fighter was treated in hospital. On Thursday in the Wallacedene informal settlement near Milnerton, two houses were destroyed and four other homes partially damaged. - SABC
