(MENAFN) South Africa's military has positioned hordes all over four districts after more than 21 lorries transporting products were set on fire on general streets in some parts of the nation during the previous week.
Law enforcement are searching for a dozen people who claimed to be behind the assaults, while establishments are yet to discover a cause or linking amid the burning assaults.
“These are organised and sophisticated operations," Police Minister Bheki Cele stated in a declaration issued by state press, stating that it could be an "economic sabotage".
The South African Department of Defense stated that militaries were positioned on Friday in the northern districts of Limpopo as well as Mpumalanga, the eastern district of KwaZulu-Natal as well as the central district of Free State. The military is going to back the law enforcement in their reply to the wagon attacks.
The nation is getting ready for additional conflict after the fatal demonstrations of July two years ago, in which no less than 350 people were murdered, returned to the headers during this week.
