South Africa has witnessed 13 fatal drownings in the past week, with 10 of these incidents occurring in KwaZulu-Natal. The latest instance involved a 23-year-old man from Limpopo who drowned at a beach in Umhlanga. Lifesaving South Africa , an organization dedicated to water safety and surf rescue services, is deeply concerned about the surge in drowning incidents, particularly in KwaZulu-Natal.
President of Lifesaving South Africa, Dhaya Sewduth, expressed worry that the number of drownings may increase as the holiday season approaches. Sewduth highlighted that most drownings occurred at beaches that are not patrolled by lifeguards and are restricted to swimmers. Lifeguards face significant challenges, especially during holiday periods when beach attendance is higher
