Western Cape government calls for calm
The Western Cape government said in a statement: …a magnitude 6.2 Earthquake struck approximately 1600 km south-east of South Africa. Following the event, tremors were felt in various Western Cape suburbs with no reports of casualties or damages to infrastructure, and no tsunami warning was issued.
Tremors were again experienced in several suburbs with no reports of casualties or damages to infrastructure, and no tsunami warning was issued.
The Council of Geoscience (CGS), have issued media statements pertaining to the tremors that occurred, urging the public not to panic as the are no imminent threats to public safety.
The CGS is the custodian of the South African National Seismograph Network which monitors seismic wave activities throughout the country.
According to the Council for Geoscience, the difference between an earthquake and an earth tremor lies in the magnitude of the event. Within the South African context, a seismic event with a magnitude lower than 4.0 is considered a tremor.
The Minister of Local Government, Environmental Affairs and Development Planning, Anton Bredell says recent seismic activity in Cape Town is no cause for panic.
“We’re fortunate in the fact that the African continent is on a very stable tectonic plate. We do not have major fault lines. Specifically, Southern Africa is on a very stable faultline. This means our risk for earthquakes and tsunamis are very low. While there is always some seismic risk, we don’t believe there is a real threat for a mega earthquake of seven or more on the Richter scale in the Western Cape. While we can never rule it out completely, the science doesn’t support it. It also bears noting that a 7 on the Richter scale is considered to be 33 times stronger than a 6.”
Bredell says the nuclear plant Koeberg, which would be most at risk to major seismic activity, was built to withstand a lot of seismic activity including being built on shock-absorbers.
“Furthermore, the Western Cape government, over the past ten years, has developed an excellent disaster response system to save people from trapped buildings in a disaster situation should the need arise. At the moment we have two caches of highly specialised rescue equipment.”
Western Cape disaster teams are often called to assist with global crises, gaining invaluable experience that can be applied locally.
Global news update at a glance:
Virus deaths top 971 000
The virus has killed at least 971 677 people since the outbreak emerged in China late last year, according to a tally from official sources compiled by AFP. More than 31.6 million cases have been confirmed.
The United States is the worst-hit country with 200 818 deaths, followed by Brazil with 138 108, India with 90 020, Mexico with 73 348 and the United Kingdom with 41 825.
Europe cases top five million
Europe has recorded more than five million infections, according to official sources, with a total of 5 000 421 cases now registered.
More than half of these were in Russia, followed by Spain, France and the United Kingdom.More than 380 000 new cases were reported in the past week, the highest number in the region since the start of the pandemic.
US-China spat
US President Donald Trump casts blame for the pandemic on China in an address before the United Nations, whose chief warns against a new “Cold War” between the two world powers.
Trump attacks Beijing and the UN for not stopping the disease and even uses the loaded term “China virus”.
China’s ambassador to the UN, Zhang Jun, tells reporters that Trump’s tone was “incompatible with the general atmosphere” of the world body.
“If we do have to hold anyone accountable, it should be the United States held accountable for losing so many lives with their irresponsible behaviour”, he says.
Stricter measures for Paris
The French government prepares to announce stricter measures for Paris, where infections have exploded since an end to lockdown.Ministers will hold two meetings – including one of the defence council – during the day to analyse the worsening situation.
Anti-flu drug
The maker of anti-influenza drug Avigan says it will apply for the medication to be approved for treating coronavirus patients after trials show it can shorten recovery time.
Manufacturer Fujifilm Toyama Chemical says its phase three trial in Japan, which began in March, is now complete.

Rahul Tewatia (Rajasthan Royals official Twitter account)
India’s Rahul Tewatia smashed five sixes in one over as Rajasthan Royals completed the Indian Premier League’s highest-ever run-chase against Kings XI Punjab on Sunday.
Tewatia, a leg-spin bowler and left-hand batsman, hit the ball over the fence seven times as he made 53 off 31 balls as Steve Smith’s Royals, set 224 to win, reached 226 with four wickets and three balls to spare in Sharjah.
Smith hit a quickfire 50 and Sanju Samson top-scored with 85 before Tewatia took the Royals to within one run of Kings XI’s 223 for two.
“I was not hitting the ball well initially, I saw in the dug-out, everybody was curious as they know that I can hit the ball long,” said Tewatia, who was promoted to number four but struggled at first, scoring eight from 19 balls before he cut loose.
“It was a matter of one six. After that, I got going. I hit five in an over and it was amazing.”
Tewatia, who has played seven first-class matches, hit West Indies quick Sheldon Cottrell for five sixes – four in a row – in the 18th over to turn the tables at the Sharjah cricket ground, which has short boundaries.
Tewatia finally fell to paceman Mohammed Shami on the last ball of the 19th over but Jofra Archer, unbeaten on 13, and Tom Curran, who hit the winning boundary, saw the Royals home. The previous best chase of 215 was also by the Royals, against the Deccan Chargers in 2008.
Tewatia’s innings eclipsed Kings XI opener Mayank Agarwal’s maiden IPL century in a 183-run opening partnership with skipper KL Rahul, who made 69.
Agarwal smashed 106 in 50 deliveries, hitting 10 fours and seven sixes.
Royals were jolted early in their chase when opener Jos Buttler fell for four in his first IPL outing of the season following his quarantine time.
An eye-catching outfield save by Kings XI’s Nicholas Pooran to stop a six from Samson stood out in the run fest.
Pooran defied gravity to reach a big hit from Samson going for rope, flicking the ball back inside the playing area while still in mid air.
