"Fatal Shootings Continue Amidst Cape Town Protests"
Two people were fatally shot on the fifth day of violent protests in Cape Town, South Africa, sparked by a dispute between minibus taxi drivers and authorities. The unrest, which followed a weeklong strike by the taxi drivers, has resulted in blockades, vehicle burnings, and shootings. The protesters accuse the police and city authorities of heavy-handed tactics and impounding their vehicles. At least 35 people have been arrested, and police are on high alert in the affected areas.
