Update: 2025-12-12
Description
Firefighters in Perth grapple with extreme conditions as two bushfires threaten residents and homes. Emergency warnings issued for blazes in south and north-east, leading to evacuations and airport closure. While immediate threat level downgraded, a second uncontained fire burns in Bullsbrook, Upper Swan, and Walyunga National Park areas. Wind speeds of up to fifty kilometers per hour complicate fire suppression efforts. No confirmed property damage reported, but officials warn conditions may worsen over the weekend. Meanwhile, Australia faces ongoing fire danger, with more than three dozen homes destroyed in recent blazes in Tasmania and New South Wales, including one that claimed a firefighters life.
