Abahlali baseMjondolo Statement
A fire started in the Foreman Road settlement at 3:00 a.m. this morning. Around 70% of the settlement has been destroyed, about 1000 shacks. One body has been found already but the debris is still very hot and it will take a while before we can be certain as to how many people have died.
Why are the poor being left to burn?
