zimovet [89]

Answer:

<em>The city of Cape Town said in a separate statement that the full extent of the damage would be assessed once the fire is brought under control. It also added that the cause of the blaze was being investigated and one person suspected of starting it had been taken into police custody.</em>

<em>The city of Cape Town said in a separate statement that the full extent of the damage would be assessed once the fire is brought under control. It also added that the cause of the blaze was being investigated and one person suspected of starting it had been taken into police custody.</em>
