Police in South Africa have found another body in Ekurhuleni municipality, bringing the total number of women discovered dead there to 11 over 10 weeks, according to Punch Nigeria and Punch.
In a separate incident, at least 27 people were killed and 26 others wounded in two mass shootings in Gauteng and the Western Cape over the weekend, as reported by IOL and France 24. One shooting occurred at a tavern in Wedela, Carletonville, where 17 people were killed, and another at a shisanyama venue in Lwandle, Cape Town, where 10 people were killed.
The motives behind the shootings are unclear, but police speculate that one may have been linked to a turf war between illegal miners and the other to a business rivalry, according to France 24.
