Schoolchildren swept away as heavy floods and snow hit South Africa
A minibus carrying schoolchildren has been swept away by heavy flooding in South Africa, a spokesperson for the Eastern Cape provincial government has told the BBC. Khuselwa Rantjie said it was unclear how many children were on the bus, but three had so far been found alive. Rescue efforts had been suspended as night had fallen and would resume on Wednesday, she added. In a separate incident, the bodies of seven people carried away by flood water have been found in the province's OR Tambo district. South Africa has been hit by heavy snow, rains and gale force winds that have claimed the lives of a further five people in a road accident, and have left nearly 500,000 homes without electricity. The Eastern Cape - the birthplace of anti-apartheid icon Nelson Mandela - has been worst-affected by the icy conditions, along with KwaZulu-Natal province. The bad weather has forced the closure of some major roads in the two provinces to avoid further casualties. "This is a devastating reminder of nature's force. We urge everyone to exercise extra caution in areas prone to flooding," Eastern Cape premier Oscar Mabuyane said in a statement. Five people died when a minibus taxi overturned near the coastal city of East London, with the driver saying he had lost control as he was trying to avoid a fallen tree, Eastern Cape transport department spokesperson, Unathi Binqose, told the BBC. Two people were injured in the accident, he added. State power utility Eskom said that almost 300,000 homes had been hit by electricity cuts in 14 towns and villages in Eastern Cape. A further 196,000 homes in 24 areas in KwaZulu-Natal were also experiencing power cuts, Eskom spokesperson Daphne Mokwena told the BBC. KwaZulu-Natal Transport Minister Siboniso Duma said that heavy snow had led to lorries being stuck on roads, causing huge congestion. Grader machines have been stationed on worst-affected roads to clear snow before it reached more than 30cm (12in) in depth. Meteorologist Lehlohonolo Thobela also warned of strong winds and heavy waves at sea, making navigation for ships difficult. Both Eastern Cape and KwaZulu-Natal are along the coast. South Africa regularly receives snowfall during its winter months, from June through August, with temperatures diving below 0C (32F). There is also regular flooding and scientists say that climate change is causing heavier rainfall in the region. Flash floods and overflowing rivers between 30 April and 2 May caused significant damage to about 4,500 homes, and left 18 people injured.

Jacksonville demonstration shows solidarity for Los Angeles anti-ICE protests
Welcome to the Tuesday edition of Jacksonville's Morning News for June 10, 2025. First Alert Meteorologist Garrett Bedenbaugh is tracking more storms today along with continued heat. High temperatures will return to the 90s today before rain and storm coverage increases in the afternoon. A summer-time pattern continues with daily rounds of showers and thunderstorms alongside hot and humid conditions. Three Big Things to Know: People gathered in Jacksonville to stand in solidarity with protestors in Los Angeles calling for an end to immigration raids. "I think that its really important that when people are scared like this they feel like they cant come out to these protests they feel like they cants be visible so we have to be visible for them.', said Jamison Collin-Morita with the Jacksonville Immigrant Rights Alliance. Many protesters say they'll be back today to stand against a proposed ordinance before City Council. It would block any city money from going to undocumented migrants. President Donald Trump has authorized the deployment of an additional 2,000 National Guard members to help respond to protests in Los Angeles over immigration raids. The authorization came after a day of mostly peaceful protests Monday. The 2,000 Guard members are an addition to the 2,100 Guard troops the president previously mobilized for the protests Sunday morning. Trump also deployed 700 Marines to help them Monday. Governor Gavin Newsom called the deployments reckless and 'disrespectful to our troops.' Trump said Monday that the city would have been 'completely obliterated' if he had not deployed the Guard. A teenager is seriously hurt in a crash involving an e-bike in Nocatee. The boy failed to stop for a vehicle at Rialto Drive and Nocatee Village Drive late yesterday afternoon when he was hit. He was taken by helicopter to a hospital for treatment. This comes just days after St. Johns County leaders decided against an ordinance that would add stricter rules for children riding e-bikes. Commissioners were considering a ban on kids under 14 from riding them, and setting strict speed limits. Instead, they passed a resolution encouraging riders to be safe. Florida Senator Ashley Moody is pushing a bill that could make it easier to remove illegal immigrants. Moody and other Republicans announced yesterday they have introduced the REMOVE Act. It calls for removal proceedings to be concluded within fifteen days after they begin. Moody says this legislation is critical to allow for the prompt removal of aliens who have already been ordered removed. The agency formed to grow Jacksonville's downtown has a new leader. The Downtown Investment Authority hired Colin Tarbert as its new CEO yesterday. He comes from Baltimore where he worked in economic development. Tarbert replaces Lori Boyer, who's retiring after six years in the role. Jacksonville Mayor Donna Deegan says Tarbert has the experience, vision and passion needed to build on downtown's fast-growing momentum.
