Loading player...
Helicopters are expected to start water bombing hotspots in Knysna, Plettenberg Bay and other Garden Route areas.
Firefighting crews worked overnight to prevent flare-ups as many blazes were contained, but not under control.
At least four lives were lost in the devastating fires. More than 300 structures, mostly homes, have been destroyed by the fires in the Southern Cape. Around 10 000 people had to evacuate their homes.
