AUSTRALIA: Death toll of people known to have died in the bushfires has risen to 24. Part One.

The video discusses the ongoing firefighting efforts in New South Wales, where over 140 fires are burning, with 65 uncontained. Despite improved weather conditions, the situation remains dire. A massive fundraising effort led by comedian Celeste Barber has raised over $20 million for exhausted volunteer firefighters. Many volunteers have made significant personal sacrifices, including losing their homes. The Australian Prime Minister faces criticism for his initial reluctance to compensate these volunteers. Fire crews are overwhelmed, working tirelessly with little rest, as they continue to battle the fires and maintain their equipment.
