A four-story temple in Redcliffe near Verulam, north of Durban, collapsed on December 12, 2025, while workers added a structure on top, resulting in one confirmed death and several injuries. Rescue operations continue as teams search for others trapped under the rubble. The building lacked approved plans, making it illegal.
FIFA has reached a new agreement with Building and Wood Workers' International (BWI) to ensure safe working conditions for the 2034 World Cup preparations. The deal mandates joint inspections and training for workers on site development.
