cape province fires

The Fire Services of the Cape Winelands District Municipality have reported that fires in the Breede Valley and Witzenberg areas persist uncontrollably. According to spokesperson Jo-Anne Otto, the escalation is attributed to robust north-westerly winds. The flames have intensified notably at Bains Kloof and Fairy Glen, leading to flare-ups in areas previously deemed contained. Otto expresses hope that the fire in Elandsberg will eventually extinguish itself.
