The plant is either Euphorbia heyneana Spreng or E. prostrata Ait. depending on the nature of fruits, which are not visible in the photos.In E. prostrata the fruits are acutely keeled with long ciliate hairs restricted to the keels only, whereas in E. heyneana the fruits are obtusely keeled and hairy throughout the fruit and not restricted to the keels. Please check the mature fruits.

Fruits visible in the available photos. Definitely E. prostrata based on the hairs restricted to the fruit keels.
