#DurbanFire continues to rage on
Durban's firefighters are still hard at work braving a large fire at a Rossburgh warehouse - which they have been battling for about six hours now.
More than a dozen fire trucks have been on the scene.
The blaze started just before 10am at the warehouse on South Coast Road.

He says so far it's all clear in both municipalities.
