South African soldiers fire rubber bullets to enforce social distancing
[NYP] South African soldiers trying to slow the spread of the coronavirus fired rubber bullets at hundreds of grocery shoppers in Johannesburg to keep them a safe distance apart, photos taken Saturday show.
The soldiers were deployed to a Shoprite in the Yeoville neighborhood, where a crowd of a few hundred had gathered outside the store, The Guardian reported.
Saturday was the second day of a 21-day imposed last week by President Cyril Ramaphosa.
