At least six people have been confirmed dead in the devastating storms that hit the eastern part of Australia this past week. The severe weather, which included a cyclone in Queensland, has caused widespread destruction and led to hundreds of rescues.
In Queensland, a man was tragically killed as a result of the cyclone, while a young girl was struck by lightning. The storm caused significant damage to infrastructure and homes in the region, leaving many residents displaced and in need of assistance.
In addition to the cyclone, heavy rainfall has caused widespread flooding in various parts of Australia. Videos and photos have circulated on social media showing crocodiles roaming the flooded streets, further adding to the chaos and danger that the storms have brought.
Emergency services have been working tirelessly to rescue residents who have been stranded by the rising floodwaters. Many people have been forced to cling to their roofs to avoid being swept away by the powerful currents.
The Australian government has issued warnings for people to stay indoors and avoid unnecessary travel in the affected areas. The Prime Minister has promised federal support for those impacted by the storms and floods, acknowledging the severity of the situation.
The destructive nature of the storms and resulting floods has left many communities reeling, and the full extent of the damage is yet to be assessed. The Australian people are coming together to support each other during this challenging time, demonstrating resilience and strength in the face of disaster.
