South Africa's national state of disaster has been extended yet again.
This means the country will officially pass the one-year mark of lockdown measures next week, with the first national state of national disaster having come into effect in March 2020.
The announcement was made during a Cabinet briefing on Thursday, and the Minister of Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma has gazetted the extension.
