With more weather alerts issued for Gauteng this week, Ekurhuleni Mayor Mondli Gungubele says relief aid is en route to Etwatwa and surrounding townships where at least 3,000 homes have been damaged.
Yesterday’s hail storm also wreaked havoc on a cluster of airport hangers in Springs where up to 15 small aircraft were damaged when the rooves of the zinc structures partially collapsed.
The hail storm has affected thousands of people in Ekurhuleni and the mayor says they are now trying to provide assistance as soon as possible.
“No less than 3,000 houses in Ekurhuleni have been damaged but we are lucky as we have not been informed of any fatalities – except for a few injuries. We are trying to mobilise what we call salvage; sheets which are going to cover the damaged roofs while people are trying to re-organise themselves.”
