澳大利亚东南部始于2月7日的山林大火是澳历史上最大的森林火灾。当时,地处澳大利亚东南部的维多利亚州出现400多处火情,其中部分火点乃人为纵火。借着破纪录的高温和严重旱情,大火随时速约100公里的风势向周边扩散,造成了人员和财产的巨大损失。澳大利亚官员16日说,尚有8处火情未扑灭,数千名消防员正在紧张战斗,但没有面临直接威胁。 The fires in the southeastern Australia that began on February 7 were the largest forest fires in Australia’s history. At that time, more than 400 fires occurred in Victoria, southeastern Australia, part of which was arson. Through record-breaking high temperatures and severe drought, the fire spread to the periphery at a wind speed of about 100 kilometers at any time, causing huge losses to personnel and property. On the 16th, Australian officials said there are still 8 fires that have not been extinguished. Thousands of firefighters are fighting intensely, but they are not directly threatened.
