SYDNEY - Fires across Australia’s most populous state are now contained for the first time in nearly six months, authorities said on Friday, as heavy rains aid firefighters and boost some dam levels to their highest in nearly two years.
Aided by storms that lashed Australia’s east coast earlier this week, the New South Wales Rural Fire Service said 24 blazes remain alight across state, though all are now under control. Blazes across the country have razed nearly 12 million hectares of tinder-dry bushland, killing 33 people and an estimated 1 billion native animals, since September.
