- President Cyril Ramaphosa and some members of the executive are visiting flood stricken parts of KwaZulu-Natal. They're in the province to offer support to affected communities who've been hard hit by torrential downpours.
For more we cross to SABC news editor Monoshni Pillay who is flying over Durban.

This is what happens when any piece of land is allowed to be developed. The first complexes that are shown are on top of a sanddune. The amount of hard surface that allows 100% runoff is massive. Why are these complexes allowed to be build on such sensitive areas? The developers and the government departments that allowed these constructions should be held accountable. The laws of Nature are the only ones that matter, ignore them at your peril.
Notice there is absolutely no damage around the forested area at the end of the video.
Its stupidity to build on sand i didn't see any rock within that land slide also building that low along the coastline
Money money money money!!!
These people are greedy in this country, thats the main reason for all of this... even the floods in general, can easily be avoided like load shedding, but greedy cakes
Even factories...did u guys see the Toyota factory, its legit built to hold water in😂😅
Yep....
This is a result of the greed for wealth by property developers. Poor environmental assessment by so called brilliant engineers and architects.
It also begs the question? Where are the City Planners, Geologists and Engineers who work for the Local Council and municipalities. How is it possible that this was allowed. The plans were seemingly approved. This culture of overlooking important information must come to an end. In addition infrastructure must be maintained. Sewage, storm water drains and roads must be operational at all times. All this pays a huge part in water management. City Planning 101 for idiots.
HARP
Even with the destruction I know know how the beauty of kzn is underrated.... As for the greed of developers.... Those huge construction areas of open soil did play a big roll....
Surely the construction companies should have tested the ground first
A perfect solution would be to dig a gigantic lake. The displaced earth will be placed nearby as a mountain. Dig a drainage system at all the lowest points in your city and divert the water to this lake. The lake can be an emergency water supply or and a fresh fish farm. Grow trees on the mountain with strong root systems and plant other ones with seeds and berries that the birds like. This will boost a micro evolutionary eco system and will eventually help make clouds and keep the land around it moist for longer than if there was no mountain. Win, win, win. Never mind, I wrote the above comment before actually watching the video. This is simply a lack of civil engineering knowledge, standards, and regulations.
Did this "reporter" forget to connect her phone into the comms of the chopper?
Poor storm water system. Water has to find its way.
😳😳😳😳
Wi needs a strong, prayer's for aur family's and friends
STOP KILLING ZIMBABWE BCZ NEMESES OV KILLING INNOCENT PPL AR FOLLOWING SOUTH AFRICANS
I think Dudula is needed in Natal. Go there you hypocrites and help people,the same way you mistreat black foreigners.
The area shouldn't have been inhabited. The sea looks full of red sand. South Africa has seen a hectic three years so many major events.
To Nyathi family, please stay strong 💕💕❤🙌
Seriously SABC? Reporting about holiday homes? When people around Umlazi, Adams, Toti and the old airport are literally covered in water? It looks like a huge dam over there and you're showing us this??? Wild
Don't be a hypocrite
vote for change not for cANCer
Noah's flood's wiping out the blood of Elvis Nyathi
Rubbish
Shows you, developers don't care as long as they get their money. Building on unstable ground and was there proper inpact studies done?
Rest in peace Evis Nyathi
Ameni kuleyondawo 🙏
Futseng wena leave us about idiot comment here
All these flats that are shown here were all built in a place where there was a sugarcane farm they bought the land from Hulett, see what happened now. They just needed to charge more for holiday accommodation because it's closer to the beach
Elvis Nyati's soul doesn't go just like that... you will breathe fire
Kant akabulawanga egoli yini🤔but what we face in our areas is too big compare to this one... They should have gone to Umlazi kwamakhutha kwamashu ntuzuma umzinto if they wanted to show how this rain damage
They should respect human beings and stop burning people alive
We feel sorry for the lost souls but what is happening to black foreigners is devastating.
Yes Elvis Nyathi will fight back. May their soul rest in peace.
Fire will be done by Mr Motsoaledi with mass deportations to Zimbabwe.
Jesus is Lord, and He's coming soon. Prepare your life for the coming of the Great King. Accept the Lord Jesus Christ into your life and be born-again. That's the way to receive eternal life. Time is short.
I knew more than two months ago that water damage was coming due to sin , but who would listen to me ... who ???
Here are the signs
Lol Jesus doesn't exist..keep waiting...

MERCY MERCY MERCY OUR LORD JESUS!!
why should i have mercy with him? is he feeling unwell?
They do not access the lands that they continue to build in areas that can be affected with floods and coastal issues. One road in......WHY????
Tragic...lets filter the chopper out so it’s less distracting.
No
Why they don't show townships
yeah, i also don't care so much about a few luxury apartments being washed away.
They don't want to show the world how Anc Gov. Is treating his people inequality is too much in RSA
@@mthemburosemary498 It tells you quite a bit about the real problems in this world ... it's not white or black, it's not shia or sunni, left or right, ... it's people in power.

Ground based cloud seeding is causing this. Since November last year they have been spraying excessively so this was to be expected, it's a simple matter of cause and effect. My only question is was this due to incompetence or was it deliberate. Is it a coincidence that so much chaos and disruption is befalling Durban, which is where our main harbor is, or is it being targeted to disrupt the supply chain? This looks suspiciously like weather warfare to me, drought in the cape to justify cloud seeding... which causes flooding in other areas, sounds like a plan to me.
ROTFL!
Wonder if any damage to the Vineyards in the country.
Mercy Marcy Mercy our Lord Jesus
Who is Marcy? Is she also feeling unwell?
hehehe , so you guys wont show places like Umlazi and others ? really focusing on the rich places ay yah neh

As Jacob Zuma would say: Maintaining the drainage system is such a Western concept. The ANC continues to find ways to kill the innocent citizens of South Africa, who diligently vote for them every election. The tragedy continues.
Not ANC my friend. Blame Dudula.They went to Durban and they were embraced,which means they agreed with there logic.Dudula and Lux should go back to Natal and help .
@@bonginkosidlamini357 uyanya wena hope your family is save
Same everywhere ... people constantly vote against their interests. Weird, just like something is wrong.
What a stupid comment about the holiday break, seriously?
The Economy Is MORE Important🤦🏾♂️
They only focus on the rich areas
Unfortunately, the cataclysms will only increase. Scientists explain the reasons in the Global Crisis conference. This already concerns everyone as well as in the Global Crisis conference. Time for Truth. The worst thing is that people are suffering. There is an international project Creative Society. Thanks to it humanity will be able to survive

Operation Dudula please remove the floods!
Motsoaledi should remove you first
God's response to xenophobia.
It's all because of anc that opened our boarders to our most haters Zimbabweans. I hope anc have learned their lesson and close their borders like Botswana.
