Homes lost in Victoria as dangerous bushfire conditions persist

Published
Hot winds, and a dry countryside in Victoria has created some of the most dangerous bushfire conditions since 'Black Summer' in 2019-2020. Three people - two adults and a child - remain unaccounted for. This evening local time, eight fires were burning at emergency warning level across the state. That includes two major blazes, burning out of control at Longwood and Walwa on the New South Wales border.
