Bushfire in New South Wales Australia

October 25, 2013 by Michelle Leave a Comment

Hell on Earth it is!

Hot season or summer hasn’t started yet but in NSW state there has been a very heart-breaking situation and battling a bushfire which has become a huge disaster. With 62 fires burning across the state and 13 uncontained fires. Many lives and properties were shattered, with people losing their love ones. Some of the areas affected are State Mine, Lithgow, near the township of Bell, as well as Mt Irvine, McKellars Park, Bilpin, Hartley Vale, Dargan and Clarence.  Springwood/Faulconbridge, Balmoral, Southern Highlands near Yerrinbool, Balmoral, Yanderra, Pheasants Nest, Wilton, Bargo, Buxton, Hill Top, Alpine/Aylmerton.

With 62 fires burning across the state and 13 uncontained fires.

Many people say it is the worst bushfire condition the state had ever had. Fire fighters said they are planning for the worst and hoping for the best, some fire-fighter volunteers had lost their lives.

Who’s responsible for this catastrophic event?

An 11-year-old boy accused of lighting two fires, one of which destroyed 5000 hectares of land near Heatherbrae. He is accused of setting a fire, then fanning the flames with a branch that later developed into the blaze that consumed 5000 hectares of land over several days. bushfire NSW

 

It is a horrific for many people, business, properties and lives. Some of the victims were interviewed on local televisions and have nothing left because of the fires. Cars, houses and loved ones are gone. Some have suffered health problems as a result of the smoky conditions. Many people were evacuated on the neighbouring town and keep updated on the latest news and events.

 

The government waived to help the victims and  comes on top of recently announced Disaster Recovery Payments of $1000 per adult and $400 per child, made available to victims who have been injured or had their homes damaged or destroyed in the fires. At least this will help families in recovery and start all over again.
