A local resident spotted the bodies and immediately contacted authorities, according to Gift of the Givers rescue organisation.

"Two bodies were found, males, yesterday afternoon in Mthatha. Bodies were recovered by search and rescue teams," said Ahmed Bham, the organisation's head of search and rescue.

Search teams continue their work more than two weeks after floods first hit the province. They are still looking for people who may have been swept away by the waters.

The disaster has left 4,308 people homeless across the province. The provincial government is racing to get survivors into temporary shelters while crews work to repair damaged roads and infrastructure.

"All three spheres of government are working flat out to help," said Premier Oscar Mabuyane.

Mabuyane said support is pouring in from around the world as the province struggles to assess the full scale of the disaster.

Last week's floods destroyed entire communities across the Eastern Cape. Many families are still desperately searching for missing loved ones.

The province held a day of mourning in Mthatha last Thursday to honour those who lost their lives in the floods.
