Victoria’s bushfires have destroyed over 100 homes and burned 300,000 hectares, with authorities warning the crisis could last for weeks as the climate emergency intensifies.

The scale of the disaster in Australia is becoming clear, and the numbers are terrifying. Over 100 homes have been confirmed destroyed, and 300,000 hectares of land—an area roughly the size of Luxembourg—have been incinerated as bushfires continue to ravage Victoria.
Emergency Management Commissioner Tim Wiebusch delivered a grim assessment: "These fires will burn for weeks." The blazes, fueled by tinder-dry conditions and erratic winds, have overwhelmed containment lines, creating a crisis that emergency services say is unlike anything seen in recent years.
The scenes from Victoria are a harbinger of the future. "Conditions are unlike what we saw in 2009 or 2019," Wiebusch noted. As global temperatures rise, fire seasons are becoming longer and more intense. Australia is on the frontline, but the heat is being felt everywhere.
