A female firefighter has been injured while battling the ongoing blaze in the Table Mountain National Park, between Tokai and Noordhoek .
The City of Cape Town's Fire and Rescue Services spokesperson, Jermaine Carelse, confirmed that the firefighter fell and injured both her legs.
Carelse says no major flare-ups were reported overnight. The fire started on Friday.
On Saturday, it took a turn for the worst, the wind came up, the fire jumped over Ou Kaapse Weg and now we're sitting with a fire that stretches along from Tokai all the way up to Fish Hoek, Clovelly, Kalk Bay and then on the other side down to Noordhoek.
He says a large number of firefighting teams remain on the scene, including City Fire and Rescue Services, Table Mountain National Park, NCC, and Volunteer Wildfire Services.
