President Jacob Zuma has commended the firefighters in Cape Town who are busy trying to contain a fire which has been raging in the Southern Cape Peninsula since Sunday.

The fire has destroyed four homes and an old-age home had to be evacuated.

Firefighters have also been deployed from other provinces to try and assist with the fires.

Presidential Spokesperson Mac Maharj said: “We praise the bravery and professionalism of all our fire-fighters who are attending to this ragging fire to save lives and stop the damage to property and to our prestigious natural environment, putting their own lives at risk on the process.”
