Eskom has hired 450 additional security guards and is using drones equipped with infrared cameras to help protect its infrastructure from saboteurs.

This comes after Eskom CEO André de Ruyter revealed last year that criminal syndicates were attacking the state-owned power utility after it started cracking down on corruption.
