EMERGENCY

DESPITE the cooler temperatures and windless conditions that have brought reprieve to the ongoing blaze at Tokai, fire crews are concerned that the fire lines are threatening Chapman's Peak.
Several road closures remain in place while two helicopters are airborne as the crews go into their fifth day of battling the fire.
The City of Cape Town's Fire and Rescue Services spokesperson, Jermaine Carelse, said donations are currently closed because the frontline workers have enough provisions to sustain the teams.
On Monday evening, Carelse said while the fire was not yet contained, the various fire services have made significant progress in subduing the blaze that started on Friday.
