According to reports 9 killed so far due to bush fires which erupted in Australia.
The NSW Rural Fire Service on Tuesday confirmed 873 homes and 2048 outbuildings have been destroyed, while another 353 homes have been damaged. Those figures are expected to rise significantly with teams still assessing properties believed lost in recent days. A further 100 homes are also believed to have been lost since Thursday, but they’re still being assessed due to limited RFS access.

Some 28 blazes remain uncontained with more than 2000 firefighters and volunteers working to reduce them.
