Shortly before 8 PM, an urgent call alerted us to a fire outbreak in Madiba Square, towards the Hughenden side of IY. Our dedicated fire and rescue team swiftly responded to the scene, successfully containing the fire. Initial estimates suggest that between 15 to 30 structures have been destroyed as a result.
The community in this area has already faced fire disasters in November 2016, March 2017, and now in August 2017. Our thoughts and support are with them during this challenging time.
