  • 27/09/2023

More than a dozen people have lost their lives after torrential rain and strong winds wreaked havoc in South Africa’s Western Cape province — including Cape Town — over the weekend. The death toll could increase as the floodwaters recede. 

The storm has wreaked havoc on the area, inundating homes, tearing off roofs, destroying crops, and destroying roads and infrastructure. Emergency crews continue to search for those believed to be trapped in partially flooded homes.
