In the days thereafter, rain and full rivers hampered search efforts, but several bodies have been found over the past two days.
KwaZulu-Natal police have deployed almost all of their search and rescue and K9 teams, as well as a helicopter, to take part in the search.
They are being assisted by emergency services, the NSRI, and NGO’s.
Police spokesperson Robert Netshiunda says the search continues today.
“An unconfirmed number of four victims are still outstanding, so we continue with the search operation. The mobile command post will move further downstream on Saturday to facilitate the deployment of rescuers. The police will provide further updates as and when new recoveries are made.”
Bridges have been washed away in eNdwedwe and electricity lines disrupted.
Mayor Sam Mfeka said, "I just spoke to the disaster teams."
"We need to get access to the area."
He said the biggest challenge is that bridges have been washed away making approaching the area difficult.
