Riots in South Africa / Dozens killed, authorities warn of food crisis

Protests have erupted after the imprisonment of former President Jacob Zuma in South Africa. As a result, 72 people lost their lives.

Protesters destroyed buildings on the street and set fire to shopping malls. The army and police forces have been increased in number to quell the riots that have been going on for days.

South African police said they had identified 12 people suspected of provoking the riots, while noting that 1,234 people had been arrested.

President Cyril Ramaphosa has considered the protests one of the worst clashes since 1990.

Meanwhile, ministers have warned that if the looting continues, there is a risk that supplies and food supplies will run out. But they have ruled out declaring a state of emergency.
