The disaster occurred in the diamond mining town of Jagersfontein.
Flooding caused by the collapse of a mine dam wall in South Africa’s Free State province swept away houses and cars on Sunday, the provincial government said, killing one person and injuring another 40.
“A detailed report on the circumstances surrounding the incident will be released upon compilation,” the office of the Free State Premier said. State-owned power utility Eskom said in a separate statement it lost bulk electricity supply in the area when its Rietkuil substation was engulfed by mud and aims to restore supply to the Jagersfontein mine before the end of the day.
