Looting and Rioting Break Out in South Africa (VIDEO)

At the Los Angeles Times, "Death toll rises to 72 in South Africa rioting after jailing of ex-president":

More than half of South Africa’s 60 million people live in poverty, with an unemployment rate of 32%, according to official statistics. The COVID-19 pandemic, with layoffs and an economic downturn, has increased the hunger and desperation that helped propel the protests triggered by Zuma’s arrest into wider rioting.

And watch: "Looting and rioting break out across South Africa in wake of former President Zuma’s imprisonment."
