Firefighters in the Cape Winelands District municipality in the Western Cape have requested aerial support as fires which strong winds are fanning intensify on three fronts.
The Fire Services spokesperson, Jo-Anne Otto says, “In the Witzenberg Valley and Visgat and the Rocky mountain area the fire continues to burn out of control. Teams worked the lines where they could access them throughout the night, but we’ve requested for aerial support this morning which will be deployed.”
“In Langeberg at the goats’ window, which was previously contained, the fire reignited during the night. There was also a flare out on a different line area that required urgent attention,” adds Otto.
