Aussie PM apologises for vacation
Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison issued a rare public apology yesterday and cut short a Hawaiian vacation in response to mounting public anger after two volunteer firefighters were killed battling bushfires sweeping the country’s east coast.
Some areas of Sydney are set for “catastrophic” conditions today, and the deadly fires are now engulfing other parts of the country. Australia has been fighting wildfires across three states for weeks, with blazes destroying nearly 3 million acres of bushland.
