SANParks Table Mountain National Park Fire Management teams, supported by NCC Wildfires, Volunteer Wildfire Services, and the City of Cape Town Fire Rescue Services, are actively working to combat a vegetation fire that erupted in Ocean View this morning at approximately 07:30am.
The situation escalated quickly, prompting the immediate deployment of firefighting crews to the scene. As flames threaten the natural landscape, the first helicopter arrived early, executing essential water drops to assist those on the ground, reports Cape town Etc .
