The death toll from looting and protests has risen to at least 72.
The number of people arrested is now over 1,200.
The police say a number of people died during stampedes when looters attacked shopping centres.
There are growing calls for President Cyril Ramaphosa to declare a state of emergency in KwaZulu-Natal, but the security cluster insists this isn’t necessary.
The police also say they’re on high alert in provinces other than KwaZulu-Natal and Gauteng.
