eThekwini officials carry out emergency work after heavy rain causes water levels in the Isipingo River to rise. According to the report, the municipality breaches a sandbank at the Isipingo estuary using a tractor to relieve flooding risk.
The move comes as authorities warn residents in flood-prone areas to take precautions. The report links the sand removal directly to the increased river and estuary levels during the rainfall period, while urging the public to remain alert as conditions can change quickly.
