Unconfirmed reports suggest the protesters are community members wanting work at Foskor

HUNDREDS are gathered outside the gates of Foskor in Richards Bay and, while cars are parked along the centre island and on the verges, traffic on the John Ross is free-flowing.

While initial reports this (Thursday) morning said the protest action was violent and the area should be avoided, this appears not to be the case.
