Approximately 35 shacks were destroyed by the blaze. Response: eThekwini Fire crews responded quickly to reports of the fire near the M19. They contained and extinguished it, preventing it from spreading further. They also protected three nearby structures, two ablution facilities, and a carport. Casualties: No serious injuries were reported initially. One woman suffered from hypertension due to stress and received assistance. Cause: An electrical fault is suspected, but the incident is still under investigation. Support: The fire services are working with humanitarian services and disaster management to provide temporary accommodation and basic needs for those displaced. This is a common challenge in informal settlements, where closely packed structures and limited infrastructure can allow fires to spread rapidly. Local media (e.g., East Coast Radio) covered the story promptly.
