The tragic victims of the unprecedented bushfire season
Several people have been confirmed dead after days of “apocalyptic” scenes and devastation as a result of the bushfires in New South Wales and Victoria.
As more than 100 blazes continue to burn in NSW and Victoria, residents are coming to grips with the “horrifying” bushfires that destroyed properties and claimed lives.
There are grave fears for an untold number who are still missing – at least 17 in Victoria alone.
Four victims across both states, including a 70-year-old man found dead outside a Yatte Yattah home, a man’s body in a burnt-out car at Yatte Yattah, and a man’s body found in a vehicle in Sussex Inlet, are yet to be identified.
