[WATCH LIVE] President Ramaphosa to address on lockdown regulations
President Cyril Ramaphosa is set to address the nation at 8pm on Sunday.
Ramaphosa’s address comes amid concerns over the surge in Covid-19 infections and deaths over the past two weeks.
The Department of Health announced on Saturday that the country had recorded 264 184 confirmed cases of Covid-19, a figure which puts South Africa in the global top 10 of infections.
Earlier on Sunday, Ramaphosa chaired a special cabinet meeting ahead of the address.
Speculation is rife that the president could tighten some of the level 3 lockdown restrictions, including a further restriction on the sale of alcohol and inter-provincial travel.
