A viral video, shared on social media, shows a massive line, most likely miles long, outside a supermarket in South Africa's coastal city of Durban.
A man, who called himself John, said to BBC news:
Middle-class people like me now face shortages. On Tuesday, I could not get bread and milk until I became aware, through our neighborhood WhatsApp group, of a community organization giving it out.
"I went to their hall. We had to queue, and each person was given two loaves of bread and one liter of milk. I don't know where they got the stocks from but they gave out 8,000 loaves. Today [Wednesday], they don't have any," he added.
