JULY RIOTS
Here You Go - Read the report from the Expert Panel on the 2021 civil unrest and looting that shook South Africa
Violent civil unrest engulfed parts of KwaZulu-Natal and Gauteng in July 2021. On Monday, the Presidency released the report by the Expert Panel on the unrest. One of the key recommendations is that the President initiates the drawing-up of a national security strategy. It also says urgent action is needed to facilitate conditions and pathways for development at local government level. 'It is time for South Africans to accept that those who have, must share with those who do not. It is that simple, really,' concludes the report.
