SA unrest: We were poorly prepared; says Ramaphosa

President Cyril Ramaphosa says the government, the police, and other security forces were ill-prepared for the attempted insurrection that took place this week.

Hundreds of shopping centres in parts of Gauteng and KwaZulu-Natal were destroyed, costing billions of rand in damage.

Ramaphosa also says the attempted insurrection has been a failure, and the country will rebuild.

At least 212 people have been killed in the unrest in both provinces.
