Alerts are in place in New South Wales and Victoria as out of control fires continue to spread and merge
On the Syndey Opera House's Twitter account, it says:"Tonight, we are illuminating the Sydney Opera House sails to show our support for everyone affected by the Australian bushfires. We want to send a message of hope and strength, and importantly to thank the emergency services and volunteers for their incredible efforts and courage."
Images taken during the ongoing bushfire crisis are projected on the sails of the Sydney Opera House on January 11, 2020 in Sydney, Australia. The projections are to show support for communities affected by bushfires around Australia and the firefighters who have been defending them. Fires in New South Wales, Victoria, Queensland, Western Australia and South Australia have burned more than 10 million hectares of land in recent months.
According to the"Watch and Act" alert, the current situation is that fire activity is increasing in the Shannons Flat Yaouk area and is moving north towards assets, as well as threatening to cross the Yaouk and Bobeyan Roads. The fire is considered out of control and not contained, with building impact assessment teams being deployed to access the damage to properties.
