Five people lost their lives in three separate fires in the Western Cape.
All three fires occurred yesterday evening with the first incident at Yzerfontein on the Cape West coast.
Two people were recovered from an abandoned farmhouse that caught fire.
In Malmesbury one person was pulled from a house and fire fighters were still looking for another believed to have been trapped in the house.
