It has been a miserable start to the New Year for dozens of informal settlers in Strand, outside Cape Town, following a shack fire.
City of Cape Town emergency officials say the blaze is believed to have started early on Friday morning. However, they say the exact cause of the fire, which destroyed about 10 shacks, is still being investigated. No injuries have been reported.
“Nine structures were destroyed and eight people have been displaced. We put out the fire and our vehicles are back at home,” said Emergency Services’ Paul Joseph. - Eyewitness News
