Over 100,000 litres of water are being delivered to drought-stricken parts of the Northern Cape on a daily basis.
So far, more than 1.2 million litres have been transported from the Western Cape.
On Tuesday, Western Cape Local Government MEC spokesperson James-Brent Styan said: “About 1.2 million litres of drinking water has been supplied to communities [in the Northern Cape].”
The Northern Cape was officially declared a disaster area in January last year.
Although the government set aside R300 million for emergency drought relief, farmers in the area say the assistance was nowhere near sufficient.
