Hundreds of residents in the line of raging bushfires in Queensland have evacuated. Here's the latest fire news across Queensland.
Bushfires are continuing to burn in multiple Queensland regions, with several emergency warnings still in place after police declared a three-hour public emergency for an out-of-control blaze in Beerwah State Forest.
Johann Lottering found out earlier this week that his home had been lost after being sent some photos of its remains."When we got to the gate, the police were there and said we better move fast." Fire came within metres of his home but, thanks to some recent bulldozing works, it didn't take hold of the house itself."Other people copped a battering."Queensland Police Service's Jeremy Sheldrick said work is commencing to develop temporary housing for those in need across the Western Downs, as 266 people seek shelter at the Dalby evacuation centre and 42 remain at the one in Chinchilla.
He said fire in Moonie had burned within containment lines with thanks to a collaboration with landholders who were able to conduct some small back burns. Inspector Cullen said the fire may reach the Leichhardt Highway within days if it keeps moving at a similar pace.
