Wildfires Scorch Australia

VOA News

   Australia continues to battle wildfires that have scorched millions of
   hectares across three states.

   Cooler temperatures and lighter winds Sunday brought little relief from
   the fires that firefighters have battled for weeks, but New South Wales
   Rural Fire Service commissioner Shane Fizsimmons warned residents
   against complacency as nearly 150 fires continue to burn across the
   state.

   "We're in uncharted territory," New South Wales Premier Gladys
   Berejiklian said. "We can't pretend that this is something that we have
   experienced before. It's not."
