SYDNEY/MELBOURNE - Australian firefighters battled dangerous conditions on Saturday as fires in New South Wales and Victoria states were expected to burn uncontrollably in temperatures above 40C and strong, shifting threatened to fan and spread the flames.
In South Australia, two people died on Kangaroo Island, a popular holiday spot not far off the coast, taking the national fire toll this week alone to 12. Twenty-one people remain unaccounted for in Victoria, down from 28 reported on Friday. “We’ve already seen on New Year’s Eve the extraordinary widespread, destructive and damaging nature of these fires,” Fitzsimmons later told Sky News. “The consequences can be deadly. The risk is real.”
